HI all, I am scheduled for the 16th and I am so excited. I've learned so much from this site and love the fact that there is somewhere specific for people going in September. I wish everyone here the best of luck and hope to hear how everyone is doing along the way. :D

Welcome! This site is a great resource, and there are lots of great people here for support. :)

I was just sleeved on Monday, 8/19, and even though it was a pretty painful recovery initially, I'm doing a little better each day.

Congrats on your date!

Thank you so much. I am glad to hear you are doing well. I have read the good, the bad and the ugly on here so far so I am keeping an open mind and having only positive thoughts. Keep up the good work on your recovery, I hear it only gets better.

      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.
