I completely agree with you Jessica. We should start a September thread for post-po. We can definately support each other all the way through this amazing change.

I will ask about having our thread moved in Novenmber don't want to start all over and lose the beginning history :)

Good luck and congratulations to everybody! I hope you're all great! I'm so nervous and ready to get surgery over. I weight 280lbs right now. I haven't lost any pre-op. I gained 15 in the last 2 months. Ugg. Can't seem to drop it like I could a few years ago. My doctor only requires a 4 day liquid diet, though I'm considering adding a few days for good measure.

And as for a pre op diet my surgeron doesn't require one. Just eat light the day before surgery and have a bowel movement. Sounds pretty easy. Lol :) I have ONE week left!! 7 days!! Eeeeeee!

So Surgery is on the 10th and they were supposed to call me today with my surgery time. Guess what no call, I called the office twice and left a message with the surgical nurse who schedules the surgeries and the PA who works with the doctor. And nothing, I am sure everything is ok but in the back of my mind I am freaking out thinking they forgot about me or my surgery was never actually scheduled or something BAHHHHHHHHHHHH, so kind of freaking out a BIT.

      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.
