@ Newbie: I started the process in January - the seminars, all the appointments, group sessions, and then all the medical things I needed to do (mammogram, stuff like that), met with the surgeon on April 29. I could have chosen the end of May for my date, but, family event first week in June, so I chose late June. I'm excited to see all the June folks for surgery, hoping some of us can journey together on our new paths!

June 5 for me! I just have to do the endoscopy the day before surgery, but other than that, I am ready to go!

And I have to make a plug for our GROUP. It's an easy way for all us of too keep up with one another and check in.

I tried to join this group but I can't figure out how. Lol

On a regular computer/laptop, click the link I shared. In the upper right, just under the banner ad, is a BLACK button that says "Join Group". This is not the same as "Follow Group".

If this still isn't working for you, as moderator, I can send you an Invite.

I have a ticker for the day I start the two week pre-op, a ticker for the one week pre-op, a ticker for the 2 day pre-op, and finally a ticker for surgery. Which ticker do you have on your phone cause mine is boring?

      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.
