Mine is at 7:30 too! I have to be there at 6. I know what you mean about the liquid diet! Is yours strictly liquid or do u get a small meal at night? My diet was 2 weeks and consisyed of a shake at Breakfast and lunch and then a weight watcher meal at night. Today im on strictly Clear Liquids.< /p>

I was strictly liquids for 5 days. I wish I could've had a meal. I'm not a weight watchers meal fan, but I would've gladly gobbled down one after drinking Protein Shakes and broth. lol

Chez, everything went well and I'm banded... Just didnt expect the pain and tightness to be this bad! I'm a baby when it comes to pain lol and my situation with the subutex I take I think it's still blocking the pain meds even tho I stopped it on Tuesday... I don't feel much relief from the Percocet... I'm hanging in there tho, I hope everyone else did well! And is resting comfy!

Everything went great! Dr complimented me on following the liquid diet as it made things so much easier for him he said. I'm just in a lot of pain and laying around!

Cheznoel thanks for following up. Surgery went well. Right now im just really bloated making the Fluid intake a little more difficult then i expected. Just sipping slowly and walking to try to get the gas under control. I feel very full very quickly. On a full clear fluid diet for 5 days.

      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.
