Hey Txmama congrats on your big day!! I know the sunday before mine I did everything I could laundry spring cleaning anything just anything to keep my eyes off the clock which at that point was moving at snail pace lol or so it seemed. I was the first case monday so that meant the hubby and I had to be up by 0400 and so we laid down about 9pm and I laid there for at least two hours praying and crying thanking my lucky stars that I had made it.....up until that point I wouldn't let my gaurd down or get excited about any check point I had overcome heck even when I got the approval letter I was still kinda numb.....I guess I was so scared that something would go wrong and I wouldn't be able to have it done but if we just keep pushing forward our dreams will come true :D So, good luck tomorrow and congrats again I'm super happy for you :)

I just found out that I don't have to be at hospital until 9 am, ugh! Well guess thats good, my kids can see me before I go to hospital, but I was hoping to go in early.

      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.
