PeVette, yay on your braids! I'm going to get a hair cut and my eyebrows waxed before surgery. I decided I will treat myself to a massage perhaps a few months after surgery.

Congrats Givingitmyall on your surgery date!!!

PEvette....the glitter nails ound so great but you should heck to see if you can have your nails colored during surgery. I know the color of the skin under your nails is a big indicator of oxygen issues during operations so many places don't want you to wear it...

Great News for me, I received a call, I tested negative for H-Pylori. No nasty horribly harsh double antibiotics for 14 days during the 14 day shakes, makes me very grateful and happy.

      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.
