Hello my wonderful Oct Sleevers!!!! My surgery is scheduled for Oct 22 and I'm currently doing my 2wk liquid pre-ops. Can I just tell you I'm 5 days in and this plain SUCKS! I know this is somehting I have to do and is for my own good' date=' but OMG. Anywho... the first few days (Mon-Wed) I was only able to get 2 shakes down and I had maybe 3 tablespoons of veggies. I needed that chewing motion badly. Please tell me that that is is all normal and that I'm not the only one that this has happened to..?? Thurs was the first day I was able to actually do shakes for Breakfast, lunch and dinner and it looks like today will be another successful day. Other liquids include Water, non-calorie drinks (crystal light), broth and Jello. How much weight is expected to be lost..? Ive heard 10-20lbs from my Dr's office. I havent weighed myself, but I feel lighter and my clothes are fitting better. Thanks for all your input and encouragement!! Lei[/quote']

My husband and I are also on the 22nd in Australia.

You need to call your surgeon or a nurse, asap. If the pain meds you were sent home with aren't working and you are still really uncomfortable, then you need to make sure something else isn't going on. Call today

      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.
