Tomorrow is my day!! Doesn't feel real yet! Packing and getting everything squared away before I go to sleep tonight. I have to be at the hospital at 8am and surgery is at noon. Excited and nervous for this next chapter in my life. Can't wait to no longer feel hungry! Good luck tomorrow to all my sleeve sisters!!

I'm nervous about how I'm gonna do after surgery Wednesday when I'm already soooo sick if Protein Shakes, broth and sf jello! I just want meat! Lol I can't believe surgery is just a few days away...starting to get nervous.

I feel the same way. I have surgery in the morning and I broke down and had a small piece of beef roast. I thought I was going to lose my cool, so I ate it.

I hope it doesn't mess up my surgery tomorrow!

I couldn't eat anything but Clear Liquids the day before surgery and nothing at all after midnight....I know it has to do with Anesthesia but I'm not if it affects anything else with surgery....did your dr. say no eating the day before?

Don't worry. I am sure everything will be fine. Just let them know that you ate just to be on the safe side. My cousin ate a huge Chinese dinner the night before her RNY and she was perfectly fine with no complications. Good luck tomorrow!!

I'm being sleeved tomorrow at 8am MST. I saw my doctor today and I asked him if I should be just drinking liquids - he said he doesn't restrict diets before surgery but nothing after 11pm. I had Cheerios for dinner - go figure. Anyway blessings to all of us. Be sure and post tomorrow when u can:)

I has surgery 1/14. My doc just said nothing to eat or drink after midnight. I did just fine. When I got to the hospital I was asked several times from different people when was the last time I ate and I told them 10 pm. They did not ask me what I ate.

I should be sleeping now since I have to get up at like 4:00 in the morning but I can't! I'm not nervous about the surgery itself but the pain after and trying to eat has me pretty nervous. Ah!!

      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.
