Sept 9th in Toledo OH! Nervous. Excited. So emotional. Doesn't help that I'm moving my oldest to college the day before surgery! Good things to come though. Day 3 of my liquid diet. Not bad. Few headaches here and there but doing ok!

Oh Bergen County ... I have family up that way.

My grandparents and aunt & uncle lived in Absecon NJ. They have all since passed. I loved Jersey and miss the seasons.

I am in Longview as well ...lol. Well my 30 days pre op diet is basically hight Protein, no red meat, no cheese or fatty food... no carbs at all. Lots of Water, greens, veggies, fat free milk, yogurt, and cottage cheese.. have lost 15 pounds so far. What about yours? ...

I am supposed to do 1 week of low carb "atkins" type diet and 1 week liquids but I decided to do 2 weeks liquid since its also low carb to give my body a jump start on losing. I didn't qualify through my insurance but I am determined to make changes and get this surgery so I am heading to Mexico for my surgery.

      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.
