That is a great idea to drink while preparing family meals. That is an excellent way to also increase fluid intake without much effort. I find that if I think about it too much it becomes a chore versus when I don't think about it and it feels effortless or second nature. I've been working on increasing my fluid intake to at least 64oz each day prior to surgery. It was a struggle in the beginning, but not so much now. Any good habits developed before surgery can only help afterwards...at least that is what I keep telling myself.
Nope, no date as yet. I am still going through the 6 month supervised diet my insurance requires. I am work in progress!
My insurance is pretty straight forward. I am timidly optimistic! Fortunately, I was pre-certified successfully with my original surgeon, so I am hopeful all will go well with my newest one (fingers & toes crossed

ps I absolutely
jello. Especially sf lime! I hope my taste buds will still love it post op.ETA: I LOVE your avatar!
Thanks, Renee. It's frustrating at times. And then I remember..."Hey, I can eat jello!" And, I've been toying with my shakes to keep things from getting boring. I have a few different flavors and add fruit or coffee (decaf) to give myself options. I drink my shake while making breakfast and lunch for the family, so I'm not tempted to snack on their meal. Will likely keep that habit after surgery as well.
I see you do not yet have a date. Good luck on that part of the journey. 
I have seen lots of people frustrated with that. I got lucky there. I didn't have to fight at all, but I had 6 years of documentation sent in with my consultation information.

I am not from Indiana, but I wanted to wish you well on your surgery on 6/16. I joined fairly recently, but I have been lurking a tiny bit as well.
How has your 2 week diet going? I have heard it can be challenging, but worth it in the end. I wish you much success!

The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone to blame it on.
We could meet at the mall .. or up in Chester near Unos.. or even Uno's.
You have done amazing with your weightloss . Way to go !
Take care, hope to hear back from you ,

My name is Charlotte. I'm a 30 year old mom of 2 from Indiana. I will be having Lap RNY on June 16th. I had my last pre-op appointment today, and am doing my 2 week "slim-fast diet".
Just thought I'd come out of lurk mode cause Tink was asking for more involvement on the message board.
Is anybody else here in Indiana? (Cincinnati Tri-state area?)
