I'm scheduled on Sept 9 provided my blood labs are all good. So happy to have found this site one late night. I know I'm not the only one even though it feels like it at times. I'm also more stressed about the pre-op then the surgery. I know what the end result is I want just have to get there. Good luck to everyone when ever your surgery is. I don't have to start my diet till Sunday, but I thought I'd better start a shake in the mornings just to remind myself how they taste. Luckily my Dr dietitian said the Protein Shake mix I had already had & used for a prior diet. She said it was fine. The biggest thing is to do your best to sticking to the guidelines of the diet. After the 4th day she says my body should submit to the diet & I should be fine. Whether or not everyone's different & time will tell. I just figure I will do my best to keep myself busy.

Again Good luck to everyone! This will be a great step to renewing our life. :)

I just got my labs bad yesterday. Luckily, mine are all normal. I don't have any co-morbidities, so may main focus right now is stop the smoking and pre-op diet.

I don't know if anyone is interested but there is a group on here called "September 2013 Sleevers"

it doesn't hurt I figure then we might be able to have a better understanding of everyone who is in Sept. I think it would be a great idea as our journey's move forward. :)

      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.
