I am another 6/16 surgery...really excited and ready for it. I'm not nervous about the surgery itself but I am slightly nervous about the next few months of adjusting to life with the band. I'm very optimistic about it, though. I struggled with the pre-op liquid diet but when I saw the surgeon yesterday he said I could go ahead and eat because of the severe headaches I was having, so even that has been tolerable now that I have had some real food again.

I may be crazy but I'm even tentatively planning a little road trip for this weekend! The surgeon said there's no reason I can't go as long as I stop every hour and walk to help prevent blood clots from forming. And hey, it'll be cheaper since I won't have to buy meals in restaurants LOL!

I was freaking out. So, I start to telling jokes to hide my anixety and relax, the nursing staff was fallening out laughing. They gave me a card when I left and keep my family OVERLY informed.

Soon to be Lanebryant and Ashley Stewart Ex,

      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.
