I am only 4 days away!! Woo Hoo lets celebrate! Still down 12lbs.. waiting for that number to change! I was really hoping for 16, not sure why I picked that number but I will take 12! Today is my last day of work for a week... Trying to get everything caught up and ready for my absence. Glad to hear all the newly banded doing so well!

Just got the call to be at hospital at 6am tomorrow! Ahhh so excited yet nervous (more about getting put to sleep, freaks me out that I can't control it) I have to stay overnight and they told me they make you get up every 3 hours to walk in the hospital which is good but I remember when I had my gall bladder removed all I wanted to do was sleep!!! Wish me luck!!! Can't wait to finally be a bandster!

      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.
