Hey, Shazini, my surgery is on the 6th, too. And I feel just the same - mostly feel great about it, a little apprehensive at times, but not often, and not for long. I am looking forward to having this done!

I always weigh myself in the morning after going to the bathroom, but before getting in the shower. I hope this helps!

Day 5 of pre op diet with 3 shakes a day and as hard as it is for me to believe it has actually gotten easier. Smells..smells..smells..as long as I do not smell food, I forget it even exsists. Surgery on Friday, can not wait! Can not believe it got here so soon. Especially CAN NOT BELIEVE I HAVE NOT CHEATED ONCE! :)

      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.
