I finally got a call today from the scheduler at my WL dr, and she said they are running 12 weeks and are trying to rearrange things. :(

I wish this would hurry up and get over!

i feelexactly the same way!!!! i am cranky as hell with everyone, i cant stand to even hear people talk right now. my family thinks that i have gone nuts. im on this stupid liquid diet and its horrible. my date is august 16th and it seems like f orever away, even though its just a week away. i wrote about a week ago that i got my date and its coming fast, but that was before the reality of this freakin liquid diet set in. i didnt think it was going to be this bad but i think i would pluck a chickens head right off and eat it feathers and all if one walked infront of me...lol ...all in all im trying to stay positive about this but im finding it hard to wait. i would love to just fall asleep and fast forward to the 16th!

good luck to you

So, now that I've gotten approval from insurance and got a date 8/22, I feel like the days are just draggin by :angry: I don't know what to do with myself.. I think I've got it under control and I'm trying to stay positive, but I feel like I'm going crazy :crazy: I should be in a great mood, and instead I find myself snapping at everyone and very on edge... waiting is the worst.

Thanks sassygirl! You will get there a week before me! I'm so jealous!! LOL! I haven't been put on liquids yet, but I imagine if I do, the clock will litterally stop and it will be pure torture from that day forward. I'm currently doing a self imposed fresh fruit and veggie juice cleanse for about 10 days. Luckily, my whole family is doing it with me so it should work out okay :D ill let you know if I lose any weight doing this cleanse :) thanks for your words. You're day is coming up fast!

I started on my pre-op diet on Monday. My doctor and nutritionist don't make us go on liquids only, but we can only have Protein and certain carb-less veggies and a little fruit in the first week only. I drink a Protein shake for Breakfast...and so far it isn't too bad....I'll tell you how I feel in another week or so....HA HA HA....getting closer....August 22 here we come!

      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.
