I am also scheduled for June 10th! I am using Dr. Aceves. I am so excited. Since I made the decision I just want to get it done and over with! Actually, I want to really just get the first 3 post-op weeks over with. But, I am a teacher so I have to wait until summer break. I am sure it will be here before I know it.

Good luck everyone!

I too am waiting for summer break so it will be easier on my kids and husband. I hate the wait but the post op diet is not too bad so far. I am down 4 pounds as of this morning but I wanted to eat the old stuff so bad last night that I dreamed about it. I was good and held out.

Thanks Lori...... I was aware so many people had surgery coming up in May, but didn't know many with June dates - so its nice to know theres a few more joining me - you should put a call out to all July ones, it'll soon come round, and will give you extra time to get ready for it all.

Good luck

      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.
