What did pre-op testing consist of? I went yesterday. I had a brief meeting with a nut, a nurse, and a physician's assistant. They all asked me the same questions. What are you allergic to? Have you purchased Vitamins and Protein supplements? Who is driving you to and from surgery. I was given a kit which contained two small bottles of soap and and five washcloths. (I was told to wash the surgical area for five days prior to surgery with this kit.) Blood work was the only test that was given. I am a band revision. I am 100% confident in my surgeon. He is one of the best in my state. I just thought there would be more tests. So ready for this!!!!! Monday can't come soon enough.

I am doing my pre-op testing now. I think it's just blood work and a last visit with my surgeon. In waiting room now. Of courting I am doing this six days before surgery, so it might be different.

      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.
