I also went thru Ready 4A Change. Started pre op diet on Sept 1st at 313 lbs. Surgery on Sept 13 th and I now weigh 273. I went thru the dreaded 2 week stall and gained 1 lb. If your using Dr Fernando Garcia your surgery will be at Florence Hospital. Bring very little. Gas X strips came in handy otherwise they give you slippers and Chapstick. I brought my IPad. The wifi works great at both the hospital and the Marriott. Make sure you have a lock on your luggage because while in surgery your luggage stays in your private room. Otherwise best of luck to you and keep us all posted.

      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.
