Talk about cold feet. I almost didn't go through with it the morning of my surgery I seriously thought about calling the hospital and telling them to inform my surgeon that I was not going to be able to make it.........ever! It was 5:30 am. I went ahead with the original plan and had the surgery.

Doing good here too! Thanks to everyone on sending all your good wishes to our 19thrs! (and close to it). I got discharged a day late because they also wanted me to drink more liquids, so here we are ladies WE DID IT! My biggest complaint is being so tired, the pain isnt that bad and the incisions arent that bad just exhausted i guess....I did notice that when i told my husband the smell of his lunch wouldnt bother me it really didnt! I mean it smelled good but i didnt want to eat it...maybe a good sign?

Hey still waiting to hear from the ones who havent posted yet?

      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.
