Drum roll please!!!! My date is May 2, 2012 the day that my life will change. Yea i know its not in april (Sigh) but due to my long planed family vacation to florida April 7 to 14 I cant get my preop till the 20th so that pushes back my surgery date to May2 Now thats going to be a LONG LONG 4 weeks. Good thing I am going to be so busy on vacation one week so that week will fly by. Then I got preop stuf to do so I am hoping it goes by fast. I do preop April 20th then see the surgeon on April 25 ( irronic that was my choosen surgery date) then I go back the following week for surgery as long as nothing comes up on preop (Fingers crossed i sure hope not) Yea i am stoked...

Congratulations!!! You're on your way. Enjoy vacation. I started my pre-op liquid diet started the day my cruise ship arrived back in FL. It was like a last hurrah, but I must say that I didn't go as crazy as I thought I would with the food. I guess we are all moving into a different mindset.

      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.
