Well Hi Everyone, it is the night before my surgery and I starting to get a little nervous. I know I'm making the right health decision for myself just praying everything goes well. I just had my last white rice dinner with mushroom chicken and I enjoyed it. My kids were just sent to my aunts house for the next few days and I gave them a very long kiss goodbye. I am asking that you say a little prayer for me as you say your goodnite prayers,. I will write on Tuesday when I am released from the hospital. I Will be speaking to you later everyone.:rolleyes:

Exciting, you can do this. It is totally normal to be nervous. I was nervous the night before. Then I had a long talk with God and gave all my worries over to Him. I woke up calm and at peace and felt that way ever since!

I will be waiting for your update....see you on the other side!

I was with you till last Thursday night, the unknown...I now am feeling good, I got out of the hospital on Monday am, first day home and I am going to be ok.... A little quiet time is good for the soul. God is in control and he will give you peace. Just relax and do what the dr. tells you. You will feel so much better in awhile. You did it!!

You will be just fine! Yes,my prayers are with you, and I look forward to hearing your story :) I was the reverse of you.. I was only nervous AFTER the operation, when I had the thoughts of the tough task of managing diets etc..However, the stories that the members have shared are very positive, so i look forward to sharing stories with everyone myself, being new to the group.

All the best Mama!

      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.
