Somewhat scared only for the fact that I'll be missing two weeks of internship when I have the surgery and will have to make up those hours in addition to any other I miss. I'm not worried about missing classes (I'll be having surgery during winter break) as much as I am about missing interning. We need to have 400 hours starting September 10th through May 3rd, and I graduate May 20th...so yea, I kinda am scared. I'm putting it in the hands of a higher power though, and hoping that I'm on this journey for a reason and that it will work out.

Good luck with your surgery and everything else! I hope you have a speedy recovery and do well this semester!

How many hours of interning do you need?

      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.
