I'm still preop but my surgeon said I would only stay one night less than 24 hrs if no complications

@dawnduke - Yeah Idk why this happens but when I first got my call from the insurance they told me the same thing. They gave me a date, but when I called my surgeons office they said that they would be the ones assigning my date for me. :( Hopefully you can get your official date soon. Keep us updated and Let us know what they tell you :)

Hi beautifulnewme2012, sorry to hear about your date changing. I know what you mean about just wanting to move on from the waiting already. BUT I am also May 15th :) Hopefully time will go a little faster. I've been feeling like the days are dragging by. Good Luck to you!!

@Committed...I just want it over with BECAUSE, every since I got approved the sky has fallen...LOL...tons of stuff going wrong every which way. Things we have had to maneuver thru to keep my date...so it being further away leaves room for more to go wrong! And I can't take anymore!! LOL

@beautifulnewme ..ahh I know what you mean. I've felt the similar. I've had my approval since February 24th and thought for sure I'd have it at least by April but I was thrown off course with a couple of obstacles as well. Lets keep our fingers crossed that nothing else goes wrong. I will keep you in my prayers and hopefully May 15th can just get here already for both of us!!! :)

      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.
