I'm sore but is not bad.. yesterday I was more sore and I had gas pain in my shoulder (still do a little) It just felt like I did a million sit ups. I didn't follow the resting rules though, I took a little nap when I got home Friday and yesterday but other then that I have been up and walking around. Even went to the store yesterday. My surgeon said that walking of course will help the gas go away faster but she said it will also make your tummy not as sore. I also am making sure I am taking my meds right at the 4 hours needed and not wait until I start to hurt. I think that made a difference too.

YAY! I bet you are soooo excited! Take care of yourself and get some rest after and then let us know how it goes! Congrats on losing the 11 pounds. What did you do to get it off? I am in that stage now, where I need to lose before surgery.

      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.
