I'm home now... I am doing fairly well. Doing my liquids though I feel a bit hungry. Trying to determine if its head hunger or not. Im walking around, doing my breathing exercises. I went to church today and gave my thanks to god for pulling me through this... I feel very blessed. I'm in a bit discomfort but not too bad.

I went in on the 8th and came home on the 10th. I'm allowed 4 to 6 weeks so I plan to take as much time as I'm given. Another blessing....

For those who do pray...please pray that my procedure is done with excellence and I have a speedy and complete recovery. :rolleyes: Thanks Everyone!!!!!

      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.
