Im doing well, no special pre-op diet. But plenty of strange dreams. OMG!! I'm nervous and cant believe Im less than 1 week out before surgery. Nerves and nightmares is what Im experiencing. Got all of my phase II foods in the house, just ready to get to the losers bench.

Yes all pre op. keep in mind that I have been on shakes and Water since sept 4. My pre op was 4 weeks. I did slip here and there but never with a carb. It was always a piece of chicken thigh or breast or hard boiled egg. I was 280 and today I weighed 258 on my doctors scale (262 on my scale this morning) we are so close :)

      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.
