okay sbmorgaine are we being banded at the same time,,august 10th or so?? Are you having it attheTBLC or in Mississauga?

I just ate the large conatiner of yogurt, went down like BUDDER...lol. So how are you guys losing weight before surgery when I am hungry, am I supposed to eat like little yogurts? I didn't get an amount.

Thaks also for the headache info,..lol I look forward toit...NOT. maybe I am eating so much yogurt, it won't happen.

So, heres one, does everyone have to eat different special diets before surgery?

I was told by the nutritionist that the headache is from carb and suger withdrawl, so if your doing Atkins, I guess that would make sense. Remember it's only temporary.

I'm a Texas girl, but if you don't mind, I just want to encourage you to take it a day at a time, and prove to yourself that you "have had the power all along." (That's probably a misquote, but it's from the Wizard of Oz). It will be the singular, best thing you'll ever prove to yourself. Just do it, friend!

You are on your way!

      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.
