Surgery is 6 days away and I can't wait. I just have to do a 24 clear liquid diet and take a stool softner/laxative the day before. I am glad I don't have to do a liquid diet weeks before surgery I had to do that with my lap band and I wasn't able to do it without at least eating once a day. I don't think it realistic to only drink liquids for a month before surgery, for me anyway. I ordered some Protein Shakes and drinks online and they say they won't be at my home till Oct 1st I am hoping the shipping time is wrong cuz thats what I am relying on for Protein after surgery. Bah come on time go faster!!

Hey jessica! Good luck on your operation - im also on the 5th. Its so close hey ! Especally that i have mine at 8 am !! Cant wait

Thanks! I wish I knew the time, they will be calling me tomorrow to let me know. Hopefully its early. I guess the downside of not having to do the liquid preop diet is I have no idea what I am in store for tomorrow. I can eat sf Jello so hopefully that will help if I get cranky.

My starting weight is 331. I've been on my two week pre-op for 2 days at 325 now. I also started my Vitamins. Did anyone get crabby and a terrible burning in your stomach?

All who have surgery this week I'm praying for y'all. Can't wait to hear how things went and if you have any tips for us;)~Judy

How do we deal with it? I just keep thinking its only 2 weeks then I won't be hungry. Hubby is like see I told you it would be this way! I told him it would be like this after surgery because I won't be hungry. On the bright side he promised to take the boys out for ice cream its the last day the dairy bar is opened and I told him I would stay home so I wouldn't be tempted! He decided to stay home too and sent the boys alone

One of my big goals before my surgery on Monday is to make a list of ALL the reasons I'm doing this surgery. I plan to keep a copy with me at all times so if/when I'm having a difficult time, I can remind myself why I did it. I keep thinking of more benefits every day! And if I ever get on here whining and complaining, feel free to tell me to stop and go get my list!!

Starting weight 490lbs; current weight 412; goal weight for surgery 400lbs; ultimate goal weight 225lbs!

Been on the liquid diet for 3 days. First day I had a severe headache and very shaky. I had to eat something small (broiled salmon). Second day, same thing but it was Labor Day and we had a ton over people over with all kinds of foods. Yeah, I was bad had 1 pc of chicken and a small spoonful of mac salad. Day 3 much better! Only shakes and broth and water! It's getting easier, Sugery is the 14th and like all of you, I can't wait and a bit nervous. Good luck to everyone having surgery this week, my prayers will be with you all.

I made it through day 1 of my liquid diet only 6 more to go. I'm missing real food already! It's totally mind over matter though. I was at a party with junk food galore but I stayed strong. Hopefully this next week will be easier. I don't feel weak but I do miss having something solid in my tummy.

      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.
