Hi everyone. I started posting a few weeks ago but then I got busy with a report that I was writing for work.....then I had company for a week who left today. Tomorrow I start my 2-week liquid pre-op diet. My surgery is Nov. 11 in LA, too! ???? I'm SO excited - I can hardly wait!!!! I'll chime in from time to time. I know pre-op is going to be challenging but it also means that I am getting closer to surgery! Good luck to everyone else on pre-op now and/or starting this week. We are strong - we can do it!

Hi everyone. I posted for the first time a few weeks ago then I got super busy with work! Now I'm getting ready for my liquid-only pre-op diet which starts tomorrow, Monday, October 27. My surgery is scheduled for Monday, November 11. I CAN'T WAIT!!! I am also in LA, Cali. For everyone else on pre-op, or getting ready to start like myself, WE CAN DO IT!!!!! After all, getting to pre-op means we are very close to our surgery dates. YAY!!! God Bless Us All! ❤ Lisa

      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.
