Lmao, I can just picture myself talking to my supervisor..."hey, I need a little time off for personal health related reasons"

Supervisor: is everything ok

Me: oh yea nothing serious, need to have surgery but nothing big

Supervisor: ok how much time do you need

Me: 12 months

Supervisor: blank stare

The nurse from my surgeons office called me today to ensure I knew what to do the day before. I told her I cheated a few times on the diet, and she told me I will be ok. So I feel a lot better.

Today I weighed 244.5 lb. At my preop I weighed 249. I am trying to shed another 5 lbs before surgery. But the scale isn't budging lol. I don't know how much it will matter that I lose 5 lbs, but I will feel so much better to show I at least tried the preop diet lol.

How is everyone doing?

My doctor is Angstadt but they are from the aame office. I'm doing okay, had a few slices of turkey. I figured if I had to have something it was not the worst thing to have. The past 2 days I seem to be feeling a little better, guess we get used to it after a certain point. I'm down 11lbs as of this morning so that positive at least.

Are you nervous? Everyone keeps asking me that but I don't think I really am.

      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.
