My surgery is in a few days and I need some inspiration so I can stop freaking out. Share your before and after pictures or stories:)

Go in with the mind set that this is for you and to make you better. The easy thing to do is to have the surgery. It is the healing part that takes time and family support. Good luck.

I started my 28 day liquid diet 11/23/2012 and I was sleeved 12/21/2012, a week shy of only 7 months ago. In that time I have lost a staggering 175 pounds 445 lbs to 270 lbs, my BMI has gone down 22 points, my waist size from a 52-54 to a 38, shirt size from 5XLT to 2 XL, blood pressure from 150/100 to 120/70, my Hemoglobin A1C from 6.4 to 4.2, etc., etc. This has been the best thing I have ever done in my life X 1000. Get psyched up because you are in for an amazing journey with things at the end that you never dreamed were possible.

      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.
