Mine is the 19th at 7:30 am. I started the liquid diet Tuesday. It's getting easier. My husband and I attended a pre-op Lifestyle Management class on Wednesday and yesterday was my pre-op with the surgeon. Now I am just waiting for a call from the anesthesiologist. 11 days to go!:tt1:

Nice! My Doctor didnt put me on a liquid diet. Ive been reading alot about it and some people do and some dont. I guess ill just trust my doctor but load up on the Proteins prior. I meet with the "put me to sleep" doctors on the 13th. Its all happening really fast and im excited. Ready to get it done and move forward......:tt1:

My surgery date is January 29, 2010. I am excited but very nervous. I am more worried about the post-op recovery and pain involved, but I know I need to keep my eye on the prize. The short term discomfort can't be my focus. The happiness of finally being under 200 pounds after 12 years will be well worth it. Please keep us updated on your surgery so we can get a taste of what is to come.

      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.
