Still a bundle of nerves and got call from nurse today and my surgery was moved up from 12:30pm to 8:30am. So I will join bandland in the morning!!!

Got to get up at 5:00am because we need to leave by 6:00am(about a 45 minute drive to the hospital) need to check in at 7.

I hope to be able to update y'all tomorrow.

Ok, I'm truly sorry b/c I hate raining on parades, and this is such a great ting for you, but were you given any particular limitations for the last 12 hours before your surgery? This could vary, but I was told nothing except 1/2 cup plain Water 12 hours before my surgery, and nothing at all 8 hours before my surgery, or they would have to reschedule.

I'm so so sorry to have to ring this up. I don't want it to be a downer. I just want to make sure you're good to go. :(

      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.
