I am on the 19th also. Started my diet today also, I just came from my preop appt. They changed the diet, I can have 2shakes and a small dinner consisting of 4 oz of Protein fish, chicken or turkey only. And a small amout non starchy vegs or small salad, Jello and popsicles. So this shouldn't be so bad. Preop wt. Today 266.

Hi! I just found out today that i got approved by my insurance! They have me scheduled for surgery on Tues, Sept. 11!! So surprised that it is that soon. So i have a bunch of feelings coursing through me right now ... excitement, nervousness, shock, and hope. I wish everyone luck on their upcoming procedures and hope that you will do the same for me.

Hi there - I'm actually in the western suburbs. I'm glad to hear the preop isn't to bad. How long will you be in Mexico?

      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.
