Congrats to all of you soon-to-be sleevers! I won't lie to you -- it will be pretty hard the first few days as you get rid of the gas, etc -- so use that pain pump like it's going out of style! After that, you'll feel better every day...I sure do! Time to take charge of your health and kudos to you for doing just that! Best wishes for a smooth surgery and recovery.

Im also counting down the hours. Since I live alone the night have been filled with all the last minute cleaning, cutting the yard, pulling weeds and decorating the house for fall. My dachshunds have their sitter all set up to come in the morning. They were not excited to see her today when she dropped her stuff. giggle.

      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.
