I still can't believe I'm so close to having my surgery. I will be the first to have surgery that day. The Dr. should be well rested after the day after the 3 day Memorial day weekend (unless he is on call). I am so excited and nervous at the same time.

My surgery was first scheduled for the day too. I liked that. It gave the hospital staff more time to observe me before I was let go the next day. Also, getting up so dang early in the morning made me sleepy so after sugery so I slept the time away for several hours that afternoon. Anyways, good luck to you. Before you know it you'll be post op and wondering where time has gone!

GOOD LUCK!!! Mine is scheduled for June 9th, check is at 130pm.. which i am not too crazy about.. and I find it odd that its in the afternoon. Id prefer morning so I dont have to be nervous all day long!

Yay for you! I am sure you will do great.

I was so happy I was first, I was so worried about having to sit around and wait for others to go before me but thankfully that didn't happen.

Please update so we know how you are doing!

      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.
