Lol!You are way further down the track than me misty and I am always keen to learn from other people's experiences good,bad or otherwise :) Then I make my own mind up anyway!

I have just finished packing for the hospital as I have to be there by 6.15am tomorrow for an 8am op.Giving my kids a last bed time cuddle was hard but I am doing this for both them and me.

Surprised myself by sticking to 750 cals a day over the last two weeks but can't honestly say I was super strict with the opti today :) I am down to 122kg.That is 3kg lost in a fortnight and 5kg overall since my first consult with Dr Mosse in April.

A big thanks to everyone in each stage of their sleever journey who have so generously shared on this thread.You are all fabulous people and have helped me more than you know.

All the best today. We will be thinking of you and sending positive thoughts. The operation is easier than you expect and then the fun part really begins. Enjoy the ride and see you on the losers bench.

One thing Diane helped me with so far is that she told me it is OK not to eat morning tea if I'm not hungry! I was always forgetting, and feeling guilty about it. Now I feel like it's OK if I don't want to eat then. Isn't it funny how much we tie ourselves up in knots about things.

I am off work tomorrow and Friday to get ready for my trip. I leave Sunday and I will be in India until the 21st. I will be checking in here periodically. I won't have a scale so that will be tough, but I hope I have a killer loss when I come back! I am feeling excited and a little nervous about what eating real Indian food with the sleeve will be like. It isn't really like what you get at Indian restaurants here, much less fatty and more healthy. And luckily where I am going there is more roti (wheat flat bread) than rice. So I think it will be fine. In the worst case I can always have an egg!

Lissa, Fiona Brown who is a bariatric dietician and is in the FB group that we are both members of - so is absolutely awesome and does phone consults. Maybe send her a message and set something up.

      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.
