Not yet. I was nervous because my daughter has been sick for 9 1/2 days now (running a fever). We didn't know what it was. I was afraid that I'd have to postpone the surgery if she didn't get better. Luckily, the doctor received some of her tests back this morning and we figured out that she has a UTI. So she isn't contagious (which I was worried I'd get what she had or she wouldn't be better) and she can be treated with meds. Now come Monday I'll probably be nervous.

Last night I didnt sleep well.... For the first time I was worried and nervous. I think it had to do with my mother telling me she didnt agree with the surgery. I dont understand why she would tell me that 3 days away from surgery. The ironic thing is that her and my dad are paying for it....

Wow! Maybe it's her way of saying she's scared for you. The day of my surgery I asked myself, "am I really doing this?"

Tomorrow is my big day as well. I wasn't nervous until this morning. Now I'm a bit nervous but more excited. Clear Liquids have been kicking my butt today. Although I think it's in my head....Good luck to everyone!!

I feel for you! That is really tough to deal with. I had a friend who made some really disturbing comments to me. I won't share those with you pre-op, because I don't want to disturb you! Ha ha. But yeah...people should think before speaking!

      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.
