Cindi....how excited are you girl???? I have been shopping like a MAD woman getting everything ready, pantry is full of Jello, popcycles, broth, powdered Protein and anything else I can think of! Found a couple of loose dress thingys ay Wally World ($10 ea) that I can lounge in or use as a night gown cause they are long enough and a dress to fly to and fro in so belly isnt restricted. I wall also be taking my laptop and trying to provide updates if I feel up to it. Fingers crossed that we have good luck and surgery comes off without a hitch!

Even though I'm self pay I have started a pre-op diet. 2 maybe 3 Protein Shakes a day and 1 healthy meal (usually lunch). I have to say it isnt nearly as bad as I expected. Those shakes + tons of Water keep me pretty satisfied. Down 5+ pounds already.

      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.
