|  Newbie saying thanks!
So, I am new to this site, about 3 minutes as an official member. I have been lurking for awhile. I have my pre-op Monday and surgery March 28th. On day 2 of the liquid diet and OMG am I hungry. This week I have quit smoking and quit eating, now if I could just quit doing laundry my life would be complete!
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for everyone's encouragement and even though your words were not meant for me, I took them to heart and used them on my roller coaster journey! I'm scared, I'm happy, I'm nervous, I'M HUNGRY!! LOL Anyway, I wish everyone luck no matter where they are in the adventure.

Thank you both!!! It's weird, I do fine all day and don't even think about food. I have been drinking my gallon of water, protein shakes, but then around 6 I feel like robbing the local McDonalds. I can even cook dinner for my family with no problem.
