Hi augustkiwi, I'm having my surgery July 10th as well. I'm excite and nervous too. My pre-op diet is only 5 days, but I will ease my way in starting Monday with replacing one meal each day so that by the time Thursday rolls around I will be ready. Congrats on your date and hope all goes well for the both of us. btw, there's also a forum for us under July Sleevers. Look for that and enter your name in for July 10th. You should see the list once you read thru them. Let's keep each other updated.

July 17th, and Its finally feeling real, especially when I learned about the pre-op diet (my doc uses a 3 day clear liquid very low calorie diet, he used to do the 2 week low calorie version but found a lot of people didn't stick with it).

      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.
