Oh man I am so excited, I am officially September 9th in Northern California, coincidentally on my grandmothers birthday, (How appropriate considering she was the one who always commented about my weight as a child! It was always "you have such a pretty face, if only you could lose a few pounds...") I actually have butterflies I am so excited! My surgery coordinator is faxing over my schedule of all my pre op and post op dates, I start my Liquid Protein diet August 30th.. I am gonna give it all I got! Here goes nothing!!

mine is on my great grandmothers birthday. she was my favorite person ever in life.. I was her baby... she will be with me the whole day I'm sure.. :)

      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.
