I live in California and I'll be getting my surgery here at the West LA Kaiser Surgery Center. I'm also very anxious but equal amounts excited! I only wish I was getting it sooner.

Also' date=' I'm from Oklahoma. Anybody else?[/quote']

I'm from Texas but I'm currently camping with the boy scouts at the Slippery Falls Ranch in Oklahoma... (great cell service for being in the middle if no where)! 7 days and 6 nights while I'm at my fattest... no fun! I can't WAIT to have this surgery! But I do keep thinking how would I'd do this if I couldn't eat much? I'm walking about 5 miles a day and drinking gallons of Water in this heat. We camp every year with them... makes me nervous for next year!

      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.
