I know April 10th seems so far for me too! I know it will be here sooner than we know. I'm not working that much in the next few weeks so I will have to figure out something to keep me busy. I have 2 kids so it shouldn't be that hard lol.

This is so exciting!! Definately need company and support during this endeavor. I start my two week low-fat Atkins diet tomorrow. Friday I go for my preadmissions testing, then I have my final PCP and surgeon appts. next week.

April is almost here. It's going to go really fast.

I live in Pennsylvania (outskirts of Allentown). How about everyone else?

I live in Connecticut. I do all my preop stuff tomorrow. Are you guys on Facebook? I love this page called bariatric butterflies. It's so awesome and helpful. I'm so excited. I'm ready for my life to start : )

Hello,

I haven't heard about that group. To be honest, I hadn't thought about looking at FB for support- don't know why tho. ;) I will check it out. April 1 is right around the corner, and I am getting a few butterflies of my own. Thanks!

      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.
