Well I went in at 9:30 and was out by 10:15. Recovery room until 12:15. I wanted to tell that it wasnt very bad all. I am eating Jello and have not gotten nausious . The only complaint is I have cotton mouth. I have a patch behind my ear so I dont get nausious . Thats whats causing the cotton mouth. I am going to keep it there until morning. I just wanted to post a positive post . I know how scary it is to read posts with so many complications. I am ready to do this and follow directions to a T. I hope everyone that had surgery today has just as good orf an outcome. Please post how your experience was today. Sorry if some of this is all over the place I am under the influence ( pain meds). Good luck to everyone who is getting close to surgery. I would like to hear your experiences good or bad.

It's all about attitude .... and you have a good one. Follow doctor's order's to the letter, and if you have concerns call the doctor's office.....that's why you paid him $$$$$$$$$$$. Good Luck

      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.
