Hello Buckeyes!

I'm having a VGS surgery on Nov. 30th. Dr. Northup will be doing my surgery. I was freaking out for a few days after my surgery date was assigned. Now I'm kicking myself for waiting until the end of the month. I am so ready to move on and get past this weight. I'm hoping to make it to the Anderson support group tomorrow night. I'm a night nurse so I never know how I'll be feeling the next day.

Hey Everyone,

Im started my process as of Aug 30th. I am very excited about it and I am from Columbus and decided to have my surgery at Riverside Hospital through the Fresh Start Program. So far, so good. I've heard good things about Dr. Tracy Pitts and Tom Sonnastine. I have decided which one will do my surgery yet, but it really doesnt matter as long as it is done right. My goal is to get approved and hopefully have surgery before the end of the year.

      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.
