Went to my last visit with my DR.today. Found out that I may not be able to get the Surgery because of a issues with genetics.Sad but glad I have a doctor that's going the extra mile.. He told me to start the liquid diet anyway until he can talk to Genetic specialist..something that has to do with protein..please pray for me.. But my life is more Important:(

Oh dear I am so sorry to hear that but so happy that you have a good attitude about it. As I was in the process I told my dr that if there was anything that would not make me a good candidate then I didnt want to do it.

I will be praying. Please keep us updated and dont get discouraged! Do the liquid diet and just wait and see! Hugs to you!

      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.
