Hi...Congrats on your date!!! I have an appointment on April 11th (my bday) to schedule my surgery date...I'm waiting to get approval from my primary insurance company but I've already been approved by my secondary! So are you excited and what are you doing to prepare for surgery?

Congratulations on your approval. I'm super excited! I have been running around in efforts to get all of the needed items (Vitamins, Water, gas x strips and etc.)! I ordered the Hip Hop Abs DVD set and I must say its a great workout! There's so much to do and so little time to do it in. Best of luck to you on your journey!

It is soo cool to finally come into contact with people who have used the same surgeon as me. I feel even more at ease now seeing that you ladies have had much success with Dr. King. Well my liquid diet starts tomorrow so keep me in your prayers!!!

      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.
