Hey all!! Congrats on your surgery dates :) I'm so excited for all of us!!

So, anyone else having crazy surgery dreams yet?!? Last night I had a dream where I was checking in for surgery, but my mom was walking around in a hospital gown all looped out on pain meds and muscle relaxers (to be fair, she did just have 3 of the vertebra in her neck fused). That's all I remember, but it was pretty funny.

I haven't but my husband dreamt last night that Shane Victorino had the surgery with my surgeon (Dr. Kelly). He thought, well, if he is good enough for a professional baseball player, then I guess he is good enough for me!

      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.
