Have to in tomorrow morning at 7am for the scope due to the reflux I have been having.

I downloaded the WLS for dummies and they said that if you have an ulcer they can treat which can be 6-12 weeks. :-(. Not wanting to put it off any longer.

I also was unaware of it and did not as the sergeon about it. Has anyone else experiencd that ? Or had to wait due to a abnormal scope?

We discovered I have a hiatal hernia during my egd, but I haven't have any problems out of it. I didn't even know it was there.

I love my doctors office!

My nutritionist appointment was not until July 27.

I called to inquire on possible surgery date and if the insurance needs preautorization.

She said I could get a surgery date of Aug 3! :) BUT I have grad school orientation that day. :(

She did however say I'll tell you a secret the nutritionist had a cancelation for This Thursday so you may be able to get in sooner.

I called an she did I have my appointment for this Thursday!!!!!

She also gave me a tentative surgery for the week of Aug 13!!!

Four weeks from now!

Does the anxiety start now?

      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.
