Respectfully said when u guys opt to use your private emails for questions and answers it leaves everyone else out of the loop whereas someone else reading the posts may have the same questions and the answers may be of benefit to everyone or at least more than one

I do understand sometimes there us a need to interact one on one but more frequently here I've noticed people just wanting email buddies whereas I thought that the premise of this was to be a GROUP forum. I hope that no one finds this offensive. And if so I beg your pardon in advance...

There is no list of tests needed. Every surgeon has different rules, ideas and tests he wants done. Some need X-rays, an EGD, chest X-ray, psychologist visits, etc. Some do not.

I guess that is what drives me the most crazy. No continuity. You can talk to 10 different surgeons and get 10 different opinions on everything from pre-op testing, to pre-op diets to post op diets. Sadly, the only one who will be able to tell you what tests you need beforehand is your surgeon.

      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.
