Idaho checkin in



Recommended Posts

Hiiii Deee Hoooo

Greetings to everyone! I was banded in Coeur d' Alene, Idaho on September 9th.

I am known to talk too much and will type until my fingers bleed so I'll summarize........

* 29 / Director of IT in the Healthcare industry / girly tomboy

* on any given day you'll find me shopping, fishing, camping, softball, football, bbqing, swimming, snorkling, quad rides, playing poker, cooking for friends, playing in the woods

* closet Martha Stewart entertainer - minus the rafia

* I prefer toothpaste over gel

* I strongly believe if everyone had sex (with someone or alone) or smoked pot on a more regular basis this world would be so much less stressed

* Gemini - and if anyone knows a Gemini then they know all the quirks that come with that

* Today's pet peeve - the lottery should be 128 drawings for 1 million dollars instead of 1 drawing for 128 million

* I grew up happy and I think the only downfall is that I don't see shapes or size differences in people, including myself which is why it took so long for me to see it in myself and get help :-)

* Inspiration - to become a gold toothed rapper, mumble a few words, belt my pants around my knees and be every kids idol

* my request to others - just tell me to hush if I'm too candid

Hi to everyone, I love this forum and it truly helps to keep the daily motivation up!!

      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.
