Just checking in.....

Just got back from my pre op appt. I am a little disappointed. I found out today that I am not going to be nicotine tested :unsure: I worked so hard to quit smoking. Damn it I want to be tested LOL. Although Dr. Zare did say he didn't need to nicotine test me, because he could tell I had quit smoking by my voice, my breathing, and my skin color. He was very proud of me.

Addtionally, I officially lost 15 pounds so far pre op and I have 2.5 weeks to go until surgery. Dr. Zare said he liked everything he was seeing and will see me on October 22nd at the hospital.

I am soooo excited. I still need to go do my final labs and my pre-reg at the hospital, but I am in it to win it!

Congrats those are amazing stats. Did you lose the 12 pounds before surgery with the liquid diet? Is the liquid diet that hard? Also, how was your recovery process. Just got approved for a 1 night stay and scheduled for end of October. Excited and Terrified at the same time.

      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.
