jhansen71, where are you having your surgery?

I have to be on liquid Protein for 4 weeks post op, yikes. This site is great, so much advice. One really cool thing is I met a gal who had her sleeve done a few weeks ago and she lives not too far from me AND she is a nurse at the surgery center where I'm going AND she will be there when I have my surgery. I feel like I will have a friend with me! I am having mine done in an outpatient surgery center.

Thanks for the well wishes. How many days did you have pain, nausea, fatigue? I'm really worried about how many days I'm going to be out of commission....I've got an extremely busy life with lots of critters and no one to help.

      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.
