I am so excited! My date is June 22. My husband is having his procedure tomorrow, May 19th. We have to do the liquid diet 3 days prior to surgery. So far he isn't too crabby! We are looking forward to a more active healthy lifestyle. Keeping our eye on the prize, so to speak helps! Good luck to you kristi!

MsTheBandit,

it IS exciting to have the same date!!!!!!!!!

My patient rep said 2 weeks and lose 10 pounds....not looking forward to it though!!!! 2 weeks of 2 Protein shakes per day plus a low fat, high Protein meal....does NOT sound fun!!!

I've started drinking 5 Protein Shakes per week just to get me used to the taste and to help me find which ones I like, and so far it really hasn't been too bad.

Keep me posted, TWIN!!! B)

Thanks ullamom!!!

Good luck to your husband and to you!!! Please keep me posted on how y'all are doing!!

I am hopeful that if I do well with the band, that my husband will want to get one too....we've both put on way too much weight!!! I want us to be healthy and live a long time, long enough to annoy our kids!!!!

:P

      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.
