Isla and lydia we r surgery buddies!!! My time is set for 11am. I've been on a "4 Protein Shakes a day and only raw veggies" pre-op diet since 8/29 and Im so sick of it. Haven't been feeling too good at all' date=' headaches, bloated and gas. Not to mention very irritable!!! Im excited, but very nervous too. I am married and have 2 boys, 7 & 9. I am turning 40 on 9/25. How bout u?[/quote']

The hospital is going to call me tomorrow for the time. To be honest with you I'm on a strict liquid diet and I'm starving! LOL I got this delicious Protein vanilla shake from the health store and Also had some chicken broth, tea, and popsicles. Actually kind of mad because I had to hide my protein vanilla shakes because my crazy family is eating and drinking up my post-op food :-) I have 2 daughters ages 19 and 12. My oldest one is worried because she thinks I'm gonna die (she lost her Dad on 9/11 and tomorrow is the anniversary) and my youngest tells her sister, "Mommy is in good hands because the doctor is a professional." I'am 42 years-old and gonna be 22 after this surgery! :-) Wishing the best of luck and we'll keep in touch my surgery buddy.

So today I went to the dietician and it was so exciting. She showed me the rooms and the where i'll be walking so I don't get blood clots. We went through whats gonna happen the day of surgery. She took a picture of me to have 1 as the before surgery picture. Also she said slowly switch to the liquid diet. So tomorrow i'll have a Protein Drink instead of lunch :)

ok' date=' everytime I go to the store to try to get Vitamins I get LOST and overwhemled..what is everyone else buying? I dont have any of the post op clear liquid foods in my house for after surgery yet, the only thing I can think of right now is surgery is on Thursday, I need to color my hair , get a pedicure, manicure and dye my hair and oh yeah get my eyebrow done.. why? b/c whay happens if if I die during surgery, I dont want to look like crap when my family has to see me.. WTF is wrong with me... OMG!! am i stressed or what..[/quote']

Lol i had a pedicure just for the reason that if i died on the operating table ( which thank god i didnt!!!) that if they left my feet poking out with a name tag on them .... At least they would be pretty feet!!

      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.
