i'm having mine on June 25th as well :-) I started my week of pre-op and I feel like I am STARVING! LOL (i know it's mental... and I know this is soooooo worth it.) Im excited and a little scared too, but I try to put it out of my mind... :-)

I'm the 25th, too. My doc doesn't do a pre-op diet. Just asks that I not gain a whole lot between my consult and the surgery. Had a 4 hour pre-op, hospital registration meeting yesterday. They bring in all the folks scheduled for a given week at the same time. Then they had a taste test of some high Protein items, Vitamins, etc. I didn't think I was nervous, but I'm not sleeping and wanting to eat anything I see, which tells me I am. Every so often I just think "what the heck am I doing!!" But I still believe its the right decision. So glad to have fellow sleevers to talk to!!

I am soooooo sick of this flippin liquid mess!! Arrrrgh!!! It feels like I've been "drinking" something and not "chewing" something for forevvvvvvver!!!!! I find myself still "desiring" unhealthy stuff though ... ( and truly realize the WHOLE world revolves around food...... That I CAN'T have!!!????). Ready to get to soft foods sooo badly, but in the meantime trying to figure out healthier alternatives & put that food devil -->????, that sits on my shoulder, the heck OFF!! Pray for me y'all ..... Yesterday was TERRIBLE..... Felt like crying as everyone ate delicious food for the 4th.*le sigh*

Every time I try anything thicker than Clear Liquids it hurts. Guess my tummy is still swollen and I'm asking too much of it by trying full liquids. Not sure which is worse - real hunger or head hunger! Trying to be gentle with myself and not get discouraged.

      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.
