Amanda Rae' date=' its right around the corner! How is Pre Op going for u!![/quote']

I am doing okay now on preop. My grandma passed away the week before last and I resorted to emotional eating again. But this past Sunday I refocused myself and I've been doing better. I am undoing the damage I did... I found a Protein Shake I like and I've cracked down.

How much longer for you?

That is a bummer. But it's a good thing you had yourself checked out and know now something is going on. I hope this doesn't sound trite, but one of my favorite mantras is, "It's not a problem, it's an opportunity."

Remind yourself that things happen for a reason and we have opportunities to make the most if them. I hope everything works out for you!! I can relate to iud problems. My mirena caused a plethora of issues. So glad to be rid of it!

      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.
