@SweetTee have you picked a date?

No, I said pencil in November 6. So if nothing changes in between now and then, that is my date! I swear I want to go sooner, but I know it's worth waiting for if I need to.

I am changing my date to Nov. I want to make sure I have more then enough sick leave time saved up in case I want to rest a little more. I know what you mean by wanting to go sooner, I may just see you there. It will be a nice bday present to myself.

I just looked at your profile and realized that Nov is your birth month. You're right that would be a great BD present to yourself. Nov is probably the best month for me to go. Clinicals should be just about over and it overlaps with a holiday break to give me time to recover. I just want to go NOW and get it over with. Maybe we can be sleeve buddies. I sent you a PM.

      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.
