Good to hear! New Directions is the stuff my doctor gave me too for 2 weeks. How does it taste? I have shakes, hot cocoa, pudding and cream of chicken Soup. I can also have crystal light, SF Popsicles and SF Jello in between. I start mine on 7/10.

Not really but this forum has a wealth of info, and kettering hospital has a support program for bariatric patients maybe you could go to that even though you didn't have surgery there.

And I wonder ... What the hell I about to do? That is my question this morning at 4 am . Today is my official day to start my diet (been practicing for almost 2 months) July 3rd is my date! I hope that I am not going to second guess myself about my decision. I know I need to do this ...why can't I think positive that nothing will happen and all I am going to regret is not doing it earlier??? I am so scared ????

I know where you are coming from, and from what i can tell we are both teachers and both going to Dr. Nicholson in Dallas. I have had some of the same thoughts, but i try to always look on the positive side of things. Think of your health and how much it is going to approve over the next 6 months. Think of how much better you are going to feel, how much more energy you will have to do things you haven't been able to in such a long time. Those are the things that keep me going and actually make me excited about the surgery. Hope this helps! Always here to talk if you need someone.

I was just approved today for July 23rd! I am stocked up on books from Barnes and Noble about all different aspects and expectations of surgery. I'm currently looking for books that deal with the emotional aspect after surgery and have seemed to find some good things on Amazon. Good luck to everyone!

      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.
