Thanks Friends!!

I will probably be sleepless, wishing I had the earliest time available.

The folks on this board are really great! I cant wait to rejoin the family as a real time bandster, not a wannabe!!

Mini Me!!!!!

I just found out last night. I'm the first surgery at 7:30 !!!!! So when your getting there...I'll be getting banded! I have to be there at 5:30!!

Which means we are getting up at 4 am!:faint:

I'm so nervous too.

Send a blessing at that time if you remember, and I'll send one right now to you because I'll be three sheets to the wind by the time you arrive.

I'm so sad I'll be out of town on Monday and wont' be able to check the boards to see how great you both did. I'll be back on Tuesday so if you both feel up to it - don't forget to let us know how things went.

Leener - I read some of your journal and I wanted you to know that my doctor didn't wake me up until recovery room. The surgery was so easy. I think you'll do great! Good Luck!

Good Luck Both of you!

      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.
