Checking in. Spent all of yesterday with blurry vision due to the anti nausea patch. Could watch tv but couldn't read a thing on my phone. Vision better today but not 100%. Port site is very tender. Getting up is painful but once up its not bad. Haven't felt any hunger, having to set a timer to have broth.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Just had a huge scare...my poor Mom is in town visiting for the Christmas holiday. We just learned this morning that she has strep throat!!! Not only is she miserable, she was worrying about jeopardizing my surgery next week.

I called my surgeon he said it wasn't a reason to cancel my surgery even if I end up getting it too...I hope she feels better soon and I hope I don't get sick!!!

      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.
