WOOT !! Got my insurance approval letter in the mail today. I'm scheduled for January 30th! I'm soooo excited! I have a big ole list of things I want to buy tomorrow. I'd been holding out until approval but two week clear liquid preop begins in a few days and I'm so ready to get going! I did order my tummy supporter and it came today as well. Good luck to everyone!!

My surgery is 48 hours away and I am all of a sudden scared to death. My stomach is in knots ( but that very well could be hu nger!) I am sooo nervous. It has taken so long and I have gone through a lot to get this. I spent so much time jumping through hoops to have the surgery, I guess just waiting for the day to come is making me a little anxious. Please pray for me!

I just completed my day 5 of the liquid pre op diet. I am fine. I just get sick of all the sweet flavors and end up drinking broth a few times a day to make my stomach feel better. 7 more days of this and one day of all clear liquids.....surgery on Wed the 23rd!!! It is going by fast. Good luck everyone.

Good luck. Prayers and warm fuzzy feelings sent your way. Make sure to walk all you can after surgery... It will help with the gas pain and soreness.

      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.
