Congrats i hope everything goes great. Remember to talk gas is a killer after surgery. I had my gallbladder removed and gas was the worse. But once i started walking it wat much better.

Good luck

Thank you! I know my moms friend had the same procedure done by the same doctor about a year ago and she said make sure I walk a lot.

I can definitely relate to all the different emotions you are experiencing... My surgery is next week and I haven't been sleeping much. You will do great! Always remember that you are doing this for you; for a healthier and happier you and it will be a bit painful at first but a couple of months from now, we will both be in much better health and on the right track to getting to where we ultimately want to be! :) Wishing you all the best and looking forward to hearing of your safe return.

Thank you so much! I'm more excited than anything. I can't wait to see my transformation. Most of my family is very supportive besides for my grandparents who don't seem to understand how much healthier I will be in the long run. I'm 21 years old and I plan on having children of my own someday and I want to make sure I'm healthy for myself and my children when that day comes. Best of luck to you!

      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.
