I have my surgery too on Tuesday. I am so nervous! Excited but the nerves are winning at the moment. I wish you a smooth text book surgery and an easy recovery! A few months from now we will be celebrating our new improved skinnier bodies and barely remembering why we were so scared in the first place! :)

For sure! It will be interesting to watch our progress! I am so ready to move past this part too. I am 5'6" 256. Would like to lose 100. So hopefully I can meet this goal.

That's me too. I was in such a dark place yesterday that I was about to cancel. Then woke up feeling much better about it all, did a HUGE mountain hike this evening, and feel re-energized. The evenings are always a little harder for me though. Too much time to worry and imagine the worst.

My date is July 25th.

      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.
