We are driving to the hospital right now and it feels like the longest drive ever. But at the same time, I just want to freeze time. I have been waiting so long to change my life, but now I'm scared to death. Kissing my kids goodbye was the hardest part. Sigh....

Ok, enough with the nerves. I'm ready to rock this sleeve.

I was so scared when on hot mine down on Monday I always feared I wouldn't wake up but I had nothing to worry about silly nerves and now I feel so silly I was so scared about the whole thing. Mine went well I had two nights in hospital but the morphine was gooooooood! Second day was sore and third day better today will

      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.
