I think so..I am packed and have gotten the medication/vitamins/food requirements ready for post surgery. I am currently on the liquid diet which absolutely sucks by the way..so I am ready to get this done and over so I can at least not feel hungry..which hospital are you going to be at?

Mines not till June 19 but yes I'm scared but also excited. I'm just so ready to lose weight. It has helped me to read people's post op stories and to see that most say its the best thing they've done for themselves.

Hey!!! I'm a may 9th sleeve! Still in the hospital. Pain was terrible. Feeling better this evening. Took a lot of pain Meds & walked as much as possible. My nurses & techs are AWESOME!! Big props to the pediatric nurses at Northern Westchester Hospital in Mount Kisco NY. And yes I said pediatric--they recover all of Dr Roslins' bariatric patients.

I'm not sure if you get this,it's my first try responding, I too have dr Roslin I'm going in this thu for the surgery, I'm scared because I haven't one the Pre op diet. He told me to make believe I had the surgery this week, but I have the last meal mentality. I'm nervous. Cathy

      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.
