  3. My sugery was this past June 18th (my birthday) and I have having severe hunger pains now. It started a little yesterday but today is bad and my stomach is rumbling. I am pretty much only drinking protein shakes and drinking water. Am I not drinking enough? Is this normal? I'm not supposed to start puree food until Wednesday and need a way to get though this. Any advise will be appreciated....Thanks, Robin

  9. Hi, I am new and in need of some encourgement. I have my surgery scheduled for my birthday, June 18th. I am having a hard time with the practice diet and not working out like I should. I need some encourgement as I have my next doctor appointment June 3rd and afraid if I don't lose a little they may not let me have the surgery. I just need some encourgement and a push. Can sometell tell me how they got started and give me some tips. Thanks, Robin

I'm changing to a new medical group to get it started. I hope to have the surgery Jan or Feb of next year...Robin

    Hi new here and have question

    Hi Lisa, I am in the same boat as you and my husband was scared also but I think he is getting better with the idea. I just told him that the medical issues are more risk and that I need to lose the weight. I am in Aurora, IL so not too far from you. Can I ask what you weight and how tall you are. I am 46 and up to 267lbs. I lost down to 212 in 2007 but more medical issues now and I just can't workout like I used to. I'm worried about insurance. I have an *** now but plan to change my insurance in Jan to BCBS PPO. The insurance will cost me more money so I pray I can get it approved. I'm trying to find out what I have to do to get it approved. I also hope that I don't have to take a lot of time off work. Nice hearing from you. This is my first time on here and I am new. Robin
