Hey, SkinnyB, I LOVE love the username. I just had my surgery, and a lot of people commented on my positive attitude toward it, and said that would help. I feel like you are SO super positive. I know you'll do wonderfully and I'm excited to read your posts.

Also, your pic is SO pretty.

Thanks so much! Remaining positive will help with success for sure. Wth you lost 10lbs on your pre-op..kinda wishing I had to do one. Instead I'm having "last supper syndrome" hahaha Best of luck to you. I know you'll do amazingly.

HAHA yeah!! Well I'm actually waiting on the insurance approval. I'm on my 10 day of waiting! I'm going nuts. I'm hoping to have surgery in February as well. Who's your dr if you don't mind me asking? I go to Dr Sina Matin at Baylor.

Ugh the waiting game..it was torture. I def know how you feel. But I'm sure it'll be good news. I'm in MD till the summer so I decided to get it done here with Dr. Averbach but when I thought I was going to do it in the dfw I was going to do it at Baylor not wit Dr. Matin though. If I remember correctly she's the director so you'll def be in good hands. Let us know when you get your date so we can shower you with congrats :)

      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.
