Mine is on the 8th too - with Dr. Garcia. I am going alone.

Have any of you packed yet? I am a last second packer, so won't do it until the day before. Need to head out and get a few more things - Gas X, PJ's (my usual PJs are not appropriate) & clear Protein.

I'm actually already packed... My surgery was supposed to be on October 28th but one of my flights was cancelled (of course after I had already taken the first leg of the flight!). So I had to go back home and reschedule, I didn't unpack most of my things. The underwear/socks/PJs are all still packed away, of course I'll have to put some stuff together again but the majority of it is done.

For those of you saying you are going in February, have you already scheduled and paid? Do we have to schedule this far in advance?

      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.
