Had another WLS dream last night! Lol I was supposed to be discussing my surgery with Dr. Ortiz at OCC' date=' but he was Dr. Drew.... You know, drug rehab Dr. Drew. Haha

I was trying to talk to him about prices and he was going to do my surgery for 1000 if I could get 2 more people to schedule surgeries also.[/quote']

Lol! He could help you postop with any addiction replacement.

All joking aside, addiction replacement scares me. It seems like its happening to my uncle. I plan to join OEA next week to start getting my head in the right place and keep it there.

I'm starting to have weird dreams too! I dreamt that I had the VSG' date=' but a mean nurse took over my case and discharged me that same day. So I got home, and then for some reason without even thinking, I ate a sh** ton of RAW broccoli!! (which I would never to in real life btw, heh heh.) But then immediately I realized oh crap, I just had surgery what am I doing?!! I tried to call the hospital and say, "um, I was just there....so uh, can you let me back in?" The mean nurse said no. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wacko:' />[/quote']

A broccoli binge?! Lol

Um yeah. Broccoli.

Geez, you'd think I'dve at least popped my staple line for something good. Note to self: Resist the temptation to binge on raw vegitation when I wake up from surgery. :P

And although I no longer drink pop (soda) I will not even dare to look at a can of diet Pepsi.

      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.
