Wishing you an easy surgery and an uneventful recovery. Be patient with yourself, it's a journey of a lifetime. The 'stages' of eating before you are in your new normal may seem long while you're in it, but it's really not. We care about you and are here for your support. Be well.

Fantastic job pre surgery! I only managed to squeak off 14 pounds but 46 is awesome! I wish you all the best on your journey. Remember if you wake up in pain that it fades in a couple of days (hardest time for me was right after surgery, remember thinking, "holy moly what have I done to myself") but I was off all pain meds in 5 days, so hang in and be excited about your bright future! :D

      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.
