HOLY CRAP! I can not believe that in less than 24 hours I will be sleeved. It seems unreal. Like a dream. I never ever thought I would get here. I figured my insurance would deny me or I would chicken out. I still feel like something will happen, maybe my car will break down or my surgeon will cancel. I'm just so amazed that this is happening I'm having a hard time believing it's true.

With 16 hours away from being sleeved I am proud of myself, I had to cook today for the superbowl party and I did it all withut tasting or feeling I was missing out on anything. No food funeral for me. The only issue I have is the laxative the doctor ordered. It is kicking my butt. Good Luck to everyone tom.

Hi All - I started my liquid diet on Wed. 2/1. I'm already down 11lbs for a total of 23lbs since initial consult for WL Surgery. I feel sooo much better on these shakes and have so much energy!! Anyone else experience this??? Don't get me wrong at times I'm really physically hungry but all in all I feel it has been easier since all my food options are off the table and this is all I can consume. I feel more fit for my surgery. Doctor wanted me to lose 30lbs by surgery date (2/16) which I think I will exceed now. On my way down the scale thank goodness!!!

BTW - I'm on HMR 800 shakes...

Im trying to pull all the loose ends together before I go, seems like so much to do for a single parent, if it gets done, I have to be the one to do it. Im trying to do everything I can before I go, because of the lift restriction. I have tons fo things to do. :aureola:

YES! whatever you do don't wait til your on your liquid preop to think, MAN i need to clean do laundry and a million other things, you won't have the energy! Found that out the hard way so I just did what had to be done and now the rest can wait til I'm all healed up! Then I'm hoping for more energy down the road :)

      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.
