I am June 11th. I am self pay so I've known the date, but being so close is huge and so exciting. I felt super deprived yesterday (2nd day of pre op liquid only), but the scale this morning made me feel terrific. I am so grateful to have my conscience back regarding eating healthy. I finally care and have hope again.

This is my first post ever, so thanks and all the best to you!

Speaking of scale, mine died! I'm seven days out pre-op shake and the batteries died. My parents are coming by tomorrow and said they have 4 triple A batteries so I really have no clue. I stepped on my scale this morning and it said I gained 2 pounds then it did something weird. I could not have gained 2 pounds on 600 calories a day with all the exercise I am doing just having 3 Protein shakes a day. I stepped on it again and it said I was 231.5, then it v'd out. I stepped on it again and it died.

So I guess I will have to wait until tomorrow.

      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.
