I just had my surgery on Feb 1st and it went great! I was nervous about not coming out of surgery due to the anesthesia plus thought maybe I'd bleed to death if my surgeon cut my liver! Everything went sooo great! I'm 5 days post op, have lost 15 lbs since starting my liquid diet 17 days ago, have no gas pain, can sleep on my stomach, and have really enjoyed this time off of work due to being able to relax! I'm so excited for you! You'll do great! Just ask your doc to remove as much gas as he/she can before sewing u back up!

I love this forum too and feel so happy to finally have a real tool to help me lose weight! I burp more now, but that is more socially acceptable than being over 300 lbs like I was! I'm now at 289!!! Go get it! It's gonna change ur life!!! :)

      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.
