I am 5 days into my liguid diet. I am having surgery on the 16th with Dr. Domkowski in Sebastian, FL. I am new to chat rooms/forums but I think I need all the support I can get. I may be asking for help in manuvering around this web site which at the moment is causing me more stress then the diet. :blink:

i am brand new as well, my surgery date is the same as yours. this liquid diet is already working but it sucks and is really hard to not cheat. im reminding myself that it will all pay off in the end. good luck to you.

I just tend to click around myself - it's good to do that as sometimes you find a question you have been thinking of has been answered but maybe not where you would have looked! This is a great place for support! There are also some Facebook groups for VSG that are closed or secret if you are not telling many people. I have found so much support both paces!

I have surgery scheduled for 8/15. I do my pre-op testing tomorrow. I am nervous as well but my excitement is overshadowing the nerves at this point. I went to Lake Michigan this weekend and all I could think about was how much better I would FEEL next year when I'm at the beach! I still had a good time and built sandcastles with the kids and hubby but you know how it goes. I'm really looking forward to this!

      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?

      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.
