Thanks everyone! :) so a quick little update; got to hospital 10am, did all the tests like blood pressure, ECG weighed me etc. I haven't had anything to eat or drink since 7.30am. Really thirsty now! I am just resting in bed till i get taken to the holding room, then surgery at about 2.30pm which takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. They gave me special knee high stockings to wear now and keep on the whole time in hospital (the ones that prevent blood clots). That's about it so far, and so far so good! I'll post another update when I am on the other side! Ps- I asked my surgeon to take a photo or keep my stomach, I really want to see it lol, is that gross or what?! I just think it would be pretty cool! xx

      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.
