Sitting her with iv in and waiting to be taken to surgery. Very calm right now, not feeling anxious. My stomach is growling but, cannot eat anything before surgery. I've got a good doctor, Dr. Tiffany Jessee who is awesome and and comes highly recommended. My time is almost up to go into surgery. Ready to be on the sleeved side.

Good luck to all who are getting sleeved today.

Note to IMLooznit - I am sure you have good intentions, but in my opinion, it doesn't help to get your messages full of "screaming" caps, admonishments, and shouted directions, all supposing "bad" behavior from people that you don't know. I am glad you were successful in your weight loss journey. Please leave others to find their own paths unless they specifically ask for help. I believe most members of this site understand the behavior changes that are needed. Sometimes (and hopefully most times) good decisions are made, but everyone is human. Success will look differently to many people as well. I believe this forum should be for useful information, moral support, friendship and perhaps gentle guidance and suggestions, not for shrieking mandates.

      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.
