That's a bummer. I know the feeling. I am going in for some major cosmetic surgery and of all the surgeries I've had, this is the only one that puts me on edge (I think because it's a 8 hr surgery). Anyway, because of circumstance I am going alone and won't see my husband for 2 whole weeks. Stay strong, bring a picture or something that reminds you of him. And remember he'll be home soon :)

Congrats on your decision to become banded

praying for you, try to relax and make sure your not uptight when you go in for surgery, he will be waiting for you when you get home, don't go in stressed, Gods got you covered, you will do great, I do understand you want your hubby but he is going to make that money so he can come home and take care of his queen ( you) :)

Thank God for mothers <3 they will stand by us when all else fails, you have a wonderful hubby and im sure he is just as frustrated as you are, im sure he wants nothing other then to be by his wife side, if he could tell the job I cant make the trip I bet you he would, my husband is a business man we have our own business and sometime I want to cry when he cant be by my side sometimes but I try to understand if he could he would, good luck on your surgery and picture his face before you go in.....you will do great sweetie :)

      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.
