I'm done! Didn't even know it happened. I woke up thinking i had dropped my bite block... lol, i was in recovery. The propofol burned. I tried to count in my head but cannot remember what number i got to... probably not even 5. My throat is not sore at all. I'm a little wobbly. He said i had mild reflux but should be fine with two weeks of prescription Prilosec. Surgery still on for 27th!

Don't stress yourself out over it! A few hours after your throat may be sore. Get some Popsicles!! It really helps. Make sure to have time to get rest. The lasting effects of the medicine made me sleepy! My nap was fantastic when I came home after. Lol. Good luck.

      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.
