First, I'd like to say that I'm glad to be back from my hiatus. ;) I started my 2wk (by choice) pre op diet and had some serious detox going on about 2 days in. I am already down 5 pounds and doing well on my diet. I'm excited and anxious to finally be on my ten day countdown! Cant wait to meet Dr Kelly & his phenomenal staff! How are all of my sleeve sisters doing?

Glad you are doing well on your diet. It's hard I had a no choice 3 shakes a day and it's been okay.

We have four that went in today (that I know of and that came to the June section to add their names so I can post it on the compilation thread) and we have two going in tomorrow.

Wishing them the best of luck. 10 days isn't that log. Good for you and goodluck.

Next week Monday & Tuesday is going to be very busy. Seems Mondays & Tuesdays are the big day for the surgery in the U.S. so the docs don't have to hang around on the weekends lol. It seems Fridays & Saturdays are bigger for those that have it in Mexico. Just a little something I seemed to notice ;)

      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.
