I am freaking out tomorrow is the big day. I have lost 6 pounds in the last 5 days from the post op surgery diet. WOOHOO. I can't wait to be on the losers bench but I still have a little worry in the back of my head. This is crazy...I want the surgery but I am worried about any complications.

YAY!!! What an exciting day. I remember the night before my surgery, being so excited and afraid of the unknown. You will do great. The first little while can be rough for some. Do your best not to compare yourself to others. Surgery and recovery will soon be a distant memory for you and you can focus on having a little booty!

You are having totally normal feelings. Just have confidence in your decision and your surgeon. Can't wait to hear how it goes & to watch your progress.

Baby girl it is perfectly normal to be nervous. Just make peace with yourself and God (if you so believe) and then a calmness will come over you like you will never believe.

Oh BTW Congrats on the weight loss.

Well I am back home and everything went well. I was so well taken care of it was unbelieveable. Between my husband and the hospital staff it was an amazing experience. I am on full liquids until I see my doctor in two weeks.

Thanks for all the good wishes they really did help a lot. Continue to keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

      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.
