Tomorrow is my day too. I have to be there at 10am for an 11:30 surgery. I am glad mine is later because I dont have to fight commute traffic which would add an extra hour to the drive.

I am not nervous, just anxious for it to be over.

Good luck Mishay!

Tomorrow is the big day for me aswell. Im so nervous, scared, excited, etc. I go in at 6:30 for a 7:30 procedure. This liquid diet has been no fun today, and it looks like I better get use to it! Good luck to you guys! We should all keep in touch on our progress since we are being banded at the same time.

Good luck to all of you. I was in your position not too long ago, it'll be a week on Tuesday. So far so good, the liquid stage sucks but I know I've changed my life for the better. The surgery goes by quick as does the recovery, I'm already up and moving and I'm going back to school tomorrow. I know you'll be pleased, good luck again and keep us posted! :)

      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.
