Hi' date=' I'm new to the forum and glad I found it.

My surgery is scheduled for June 3rd. I think I may be more anxious than nervous. I found that now I have become addicted to watching YouTube videos of vsg journeys.[/quote']

I am June 3rd also, and I am addicted to YouTube and this forum lol. I am going to start my own videos tomorrow for YouTube!

Don't worry about the pre-diet (if you can). You can do ANYTHING!

I go in tomorrow to meet w/ the surgeon for consultation. Hoping to schedule the surgery for June 10th. I'm not really scared or nervous about the surgery right now, but I too have my days.

Two things I suggest to get your nerves settled down:

1.) Educate yourself on the procedure (as much as possible)

2.) If you believe in a higher power, pray about it. (My nerves calmed down considerably after praying for strength to get me through the next few months)

My surgery date is June 6th and I am nothing but excited! I had my Lap-Band taken out 5 1/2 months ago and have gained a considerable amount of weight since then. I started my pre-op diet today (a week early) and I'm pretty hungry but it will all be worth it!

I am also addicted to watching youtube videos. :)

      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.
