How are you all doing? I had my egd done today and it really wasn't a big deal. I was tired from the anesthsia but managed to take a nap and then headed to work. I was a bit off my game but mostly ok. Pre-op education is next week then liquids. Oh my gosh. Its happening so quickly now!

Good morning to my october 9thers! I wish everyone a successful surgery, and a speedy recovery. I'm praying for us all, in hopes that God will watch over us, as well as our doctors and surgeons, so that we have a successful procedure. I have to be at the hospital at 9:30, and i will provide updates.

Blessings to everyone!! <3

      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.
