I'm so nervous! I think I'm worried about the pain and the fact that part of my body will be gone than the actual procedure itself. I keep thinking: what if this is a mistake? but then I think about how long this journey has been and how much I've wanted this, and I just want it to be done in over with.

I was lucky that I only had to fast for 24 hours and I couldn't drink anything in the last 8.

I can't wait to meet everyone on the losers bench! Here's to an amazing journey.

I am 2 days out and trust me, there is nothing to worry about. The doctors are professionals, they'll take great care of you. I'm just a little sore, drinking my juice and trying to retrain myself to sip. That's the hardest part this far! The surgery itself is over before you know it. Try to walk as soon as your able and keep making the time to walk. It makes drastic changes one day to the next. Best wishes!

      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.
