That is so cool Megan - I am so proud to know others like you on this journey. I have spent so much time in sadness over weight - that this site gives me hope and happiness thinking of the changes for the better that we all have a chance at.

I am so glad for you. Take care.

Megan- I always enjoy seeing your posts. Judging by the responses that have come since you sent this...you can see how many other lives you touch with your encouragement. I was kind of bummed tonight...I'm just two weeks out, but I realized that with the band as yet unfilled, I can easily eat ice cream or other useless treats. I was sitting here thinking, "What a stupid thing...spend all this money only to cheat within a few weeks from this huge surgery." So I've spent time reading through other people struggles and success'...and you are a success. I realized that I have to take this thing to the next level and win!

God bless you for your heart and strength. You are an inspiration today!

Keep up the good work...and keep posting!

Grace and Peace

Jon

      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.
