Hello Guys, I am also from Portland, OR. I am having my surgery at Oregon Weight-loss Center through Legacy Good Samaritan....... Have any of you had to lose weight before surgery date? Have you joined in support groups.

My insurance requires me to be refered by my doctor before I start anything and I won't be able to see her till the 25th so hopefully she gives me the ok. I know I'll be required to do the 6 month diet. But usually it is the doctor who tell you to lose a % of the your weight due to a fatty liver or to make it easier for your surgeon. From what I have read that is.

      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?

      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.
