That my surgery date is August 4th, how weird is that?!?! I feel like all I think about is this surgery and now I am having dreams about it too. The weird thing is I'm not even finished with my supervised diet yet lol. I did all the other testing already. May 28th (my bday) is my last weigh in for the supervised diet. How weird would it be if aug 4th is my surgery date lol. I hope not b/c that's entirely too far away. I'm aiming for the end of June!

I'm so anxious ... I've become a YouTube & Instagram fanatic... I was cleared by the health psychologist & I have an appointment to meet the surgeon on the 12th so I'm crossing my fingers that my surgery date will be in July ...

LOL I've been making videos and putting them on YouTube since I had the idea to do this surgery. I figured that everyone elses YouTube videos have helped me so much to make my decision and see what's to come, that I could do the same for others as well. ;)

      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.
