No preop diet for me. Just no eating after midnight the day before surgery... But I plan on keeping my eating light the whole week before.

I don't have one either, I am happy about it but a bit puzzled that so many have one. I guess every surgeon is different :) Happy I found someone with the same day as me!

My surgery will be on October 11 at Forest Park Med Ctr in Dallas. I'm envious of the ones who don't have a pre-op diet. Mine starts this Friday and consists of 4 Protein Shakes per day plus sugar free popsicles and Jello. I hope we can keep in touch so we don't feel like we're going through this alone. I have a wonderfully supportive family, but they won't understand like y'all will. Good luck everybody!

I was actually a little worried that I didn't have a pre-op diet, seemed like everyone around this joint had one B)

      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.
