There's lots of different pre-opp diets out there. I guess it depends on what your doctor wants. I'm soooo thankful I didn't have to do the all liquid thing. I had a friend who had a bypass and she was on liquids for 2 weeks prior. Scary.

Think of all the diets we've been on..... we can do anything for a week

Wanted to check in with everybody how is everybody doing? Only FOUR DAYS LEFT! My liquid diet is going "ok" a lil better than i thought actually, the first day was the worst. My thing is I cant believe this is real....that i am actually going to get this done....I keep thinking of the procedure...the actual CUTTING of the stomach..anybody else..is that normal? Maybe just getting cold feet i dunno.

on a good note my pants are a bit loose from the liquid diet :thumbup1:

How is everybody? We made it to Friday!!! WHOO HOO! This was our busiest week ever at work, my goals for the year were due, had to take two classes on crapstuff, and STILL managed to stay on my liquid diet....go me! I have noticed though how EMOTIONAL i am about food, when i came home this week i was soooo tired and just wanted to have mac n cheese, or when i got stressed i found myself thinking about going to get comfort fooding....the journey has begun!!!

Ok guys nerves have set in, UGH! I have looked at my son twice today and started crying and telling him how much I love him. He is 15 months old and basically was like quit kissing me. I have a cousin who speaks negatively even in her sleep whom I had to go off on and hang up on. I basically told her I live for my son not the rest of my family and I'm not gonna do anything that I feel like may take me from him. She should worry about who her husband is sleeping with than my surgery (sorry that wasn't nice but true). Oh well still excited for tomorrow!!!!

      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.
