I don't have a date yet, but I know it will be in July, so count me in! I will also try to make some kind of tag. We'll see how it goes.

Well, that didn't work, but I see that someone has already made one. That's good! How do we put that in our signature?

Well, I played around and got mine to post in my signature, but I do think we should all have the same one. Eviebell, can you put a link in or tell us how to get yours and I'll change mine. However, do y'all like the idea of having the year in or not? I'm assuming there was probably a July group last year. Do you want to set ourselves apart that way, or do you thing just the name is sufficient? Just ideas...:cursing:

Okay, well, disregard my previous messages (all dozen or so...lol)! It appears there is a poll in another section on what to call ourselves. So far July Jewels is ahead. Go vote!!!! I took the graphic out of my signature all together until we officially win the vote. (Don't want to jinx it, I guess.)

Raleighlap, I'm jealous! You have really gotten the ball rolling! It has taken me nearly a year to jump through all the hoops. :cursing:

Good luck to all! I can't wait until this time next year when we can all talk about all the weight we have lost and all the other things we have gained!:sad:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
