First off, CONGRATS!! This is exciting. I was sleeved on Jan. 14th & feel great. A little exhausted here & there but doing wonderful. The day of my surgery I woke up @ 4:00am, sat & cried in the bathroom by myself, said a couple of prayers & then that was it. I knew I was doing the right thing. I am so glad that I didn't back out of this. I can already tell the awesome feeling in my step & my husband is already telling me how wonderful I'm looking. (I know, he's only being supporative but it makes me feel better.)

Hang in there girl!! It's going to go awesome & you're going to LOVE it. I'm already saying a prayer for you. I'm excited for you & can't wait to hear from you after you're up & running.

Keep us posted!!

Best of luck honey, you'll do great, don't know of any one who wouldn't be nervous, it's a normal response! Even I was as nervous as a june bug the day of my surgery and this was my 18th major surgery! You'd think i was used to it huh? Nope not at all. . .but before it began it was over and I'm 3 weeks out now and have lost 32 lbs. . You'll be ok honey, we are all here for you if you need us. . . Godspeed and God's blessing to you!

      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.
