Good luck!!! I know that the night before my surgery I was a nervous wreck that didn't sleep one wink. I was just too scared to sleep and nervous that all went well. Again, good luck to you now and again in a few hours

Actually I slept but had to be at the hospital at 5:30 am, arrrgggg! But it was well worth it. Good luck to you and many prayers to you. These next few days hopefully will go smoothly but remember this: sip sip sip all day long, walk around the house to work out the gas in case you have gas pains especially in your shoulder area and have some gas x handy, take it easy and let your body heal, these days are critical to healing and lastly keep us posted on how you are doing. In no time you will feel like a brand new you! I'm 5 mos post op and wouldn't trade it for the world. Yes it's been a struggle but all worth it. Now go get some rest!!!

      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.
