Just finished day 1 of 3 of the pre op diet. Not too bad, a little hungry. Kind of wondering how I'm going to go without eating until probably Friday...ready for surgery on Thursday though.

Omg..... Today is my last day at work. I'm taking Wednesday off to get things done and surgery on thrusday.. I wasn't nervous but now I'm freaking out. I can't believe this. I had a REALLY bad experience with gallbladder surgery with internal bleeding so I think it's all hitting me now. Please pray for me to keep calm and everything goes smoothly.

I was just banded March 6th...I have already lost 16 pounds but I am sure that is just toxins and Water weight...and I know that I will gain some of that back when I start to introduce food back into my diet...but it is encouraging...

      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.
