Yay for June 19! Sorry about your coworkers. There's so much prejudice against heavy people. I get it from my inlaws and their snide remarks which is why I'm not telling them either. Actually not telling many: my parents, my son, my fiancé and my best friend. All are supportive.

I totally understand...I have told only my significant other, my two best friends, and my inlaws who will have to doggiesit my fur kids. LOL And they all LOVE that I am having the surgery. Nobody else will know...my employer and co workers will know that I only went for surgery to repair a hiatial hernia...which is the truth. lol

My surgery date is set for June 19th. I'm pretty nervous about a few things. I've never had surgery or been put under so that makes me apprehensive. I'm looking forward to losing weight but it doesn't seem real yet. I meet with the surgeon in May and that's when I find out what my pre op diet will be. Just overall excited but also a little nervous. Anybody relate?

I am June 17th. I think it is normal to be nervous. I have waited for a year. Yeah I am nervous but also ready. Good luck.

I was very anxious the morning of the surgery, by the time I arrived at the hospital a calmness came over me.

      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.
