Well tomorrow June 19 @7:30am my sleeve date is here, being on this clear liquid diet has not been too bad, the broth, Popsicles , and Jello all sugar free of coarse has helped, I never would of thought I could make it but so far I'm hanging in there, the kids say that's the way I roll. (Lol), I been keeping busy and not watching TV with all those food commercials. Went to a support group meeting last night and it was Mary Kay make over day, if I knew I wouldn't of been there I needed different kind of support, so I'm looking at all these females with a white mask ( paste) on their face, so I just sat there being humble with all the ladies in the room, did meet Liz she lives at the near by town made it a support for me, she is such a sweet heart. Good luck to all the June sleevers past present and future . I'm ready fully without a doubt this is for me!

Good luck to you tomorrow, and congratulations on taking this step to a new life of health and happiness!

(And turn-about is fair play--if your support group has a follow up meeting, make sure it's about sports, hunting and how to craft the perfect pick-up lines!) :D

Yay!!! This surgery should be a breeze, after all you are a survivor of the Mary Kay makeover party. Just the fact that you didn't flee the room is impressive. Good Luck tomorrow - Happy Healing!

      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.
