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.

Tiffany, hope they call soon. Don't freak out to soon someone just got busy and forgot to make the call(they should KNOW nurses don't forget these things EVERRRRRR)

Jessica, I have given them all abx..and lots of vit-c, my husband it getting ready to leave overseas, so my son will do his best to take care of me..what kind of liquid diet do you have to do? just get a really good protien shake, b/c you will use it anyways after surgery.. I use isoprene. I work from home for a Dr, that i use to work ofr back in AZ so i lucked out there.. if you get to weak at work, just tell them and leave work.. I find the fact i had to cut out coffee was the hardest.. i still cant get rid of the headaches, I am sure you are going to do fantastic I HAVE FAITH IN YOU!! nothing taste as good as looking thin feels!!

The time of tye month is the worst to be on the scale. Your body retains so much water it looks like and feels like the scalr hasnt moved. I hate being on tye scale with aunt flo. Its so disappointimg

      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.
