My date is OCT 29th with Dr. Alvarez, I can't wait, my friend is a nurse and she used him, she looks awesome, one year later, she loved it and said she wished she would have did this 10 years ago, I have been obese for 17 years and I am ready for my surgery!!

I was NOT expecting a call this soon. I was under the impression that I still had 1 more nutrition class to attend, but I asked the lady several times if she was SURE it was right & she assured me it was APPROVED 4 ME! :)

The only downside to my date is....no Thanksgiving turkey 4 me! Oh well...who cares?? Certainly NOT ME!

Congrats brookc73, Flygirl, Vicki & TexasT...looks like we'll all be gettin' on the losers bench around the same time. ;)

Good luck & let's stay in touch.

      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.
