Glad that's behind you now! Wonder why they made you go thru that? Did they suspect you suffered from Sleep Apnea or is it just one of those hoop jumping tests that are mandated by your Bariatric Program?

It is a mandated test with many surgeons

I had the test done. I didn't fall asleep until between 3:30 and 4:00am. The sleep tech told me that they did get enough sleep for a diagnosis and I did have moderate sleep apnea. He also said he wondered if I was EVER going to fall asleep. When I went in for the titration study he told me to bring a sleeping pill. I did, and I had no problems sleeping that time.

Unfortunately I guess....I didn't have severe sleep apnea, just moderate, so I don't think it will count as a co-morbidity.

      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.
