Well tomorrow is the pre-op full liquid for a week and basically tonight is the last day I will have solid food for a month. Wow that seems like a long time.

Surgery later today-still awake at 1am, have to get up at 5am to leave by 6am for 8am check in at Swedish (darn traffic!). Surgery is at 10:40am and my husband will be staying overnight in the hospital with me. I have been nervous at times, but my way of coping with things I don't like (dentist etc) is to put them off until I absolutely have to- which will mean when I have to put on that hospital gown. I take a page out of Scarlett O'Hara's playbook and say "I'll think about that tomorrow". Working so far! Skin feels dry from that darned hospital soap- sensitive skin. More later! Good luck all you July 2nd folks!

      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.
