I didn't sleep the night before either... But that was in large part because I'm usually up until 2 to 3am and my morning starts around 10. Day of surgery for me I was the first one up and had to be at the hospital checking in by 4:00am. Just made more sense to stay up. A minor case of the nerves made it so I never would have slept anyways.

Just relax and know that in a relatively short amount of time you will be exceedingly happy that you did this.

Yea in your case I would have stayed up too. Yes I'm trying to relax and watch a movie but my mind will not focus on the movie lol. Hopefully my eyes will get heavy soon. I have to be at the hospital at 7 am so I have a little time.

Thank you for the reassurance :)

I was completely calm. I actually didn't go to sleep -- I had to be at the hospital for 6 ( it's a 45 minute drive) so I ended up cleaning house all night - I wanted to make sure everything was clean when I got home...

I had no doubts about my decision so I was at peace. On the way to the hospital my husband made the comment that he couldn't believe how calm and unconcerned I was....

Good luck....be excited....this is the beginning of a new life!

I had a hard time sleeping due to nerves. I was scared up to the point of them taking me back to the or. I was constantly trying to think of a reason to leave, because i am scared of hospitals. However it was the best decision I have ever made. hold in there everything will be a-o-k

      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.
