I'm scheduled for surgery at 9:30am, but I have to be there by 7 for them to do a urinalysis.

There are so many feelings and emotions running through me right now..

Everything from nervous and happy to excited and scared...

Anyone else scheduled for tomorrow?

I had mine June 25th of this year...my daughter is having hers in the morning at 730. You won't be hunger from the time you get up and your nerves start in. Everything will be fine but food as you knew it will be gone. :) Be sure to walk when you can to help with the gas pains. Eat crushed ice and try to drink your juices in the hospital. Rest alot...which Im sure you will. Use your pain button as much as you need it..its wonderful !!!!

Good luck to you all and see you on the losers bench tomorrow.

      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.
