Everyones weightloss during the preop diet has me energized. I wouldn't mind dropping some weight over time.

You will lose. Nothing to it! I lost 18lbs preop on that liquid diet... almost 7lbs down since surgery day.. that reminds me, i need to update my ticker...

Meanwhile back at the ranch, I had my husband take me to the emergency room around 4am this morning. I wasn't breathing.so hot and i coughed up a glob of dark red blood in my sputum late last night. They didn't find any blood clots but they did find a nodule on one of my lungs which i have to get xrayed again for in a year.

Well at least it wasn't a clot or related to the surgery!

      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.
