I can't stand the box or canned chicken broth straight so I plan on making my own broth I'm glad I live near a large Asian community I was able to find chicken feet at one of the little Asian groceries now I can make chicken broth with lots of calogin(I don't know if that's spelled right) in it so it's nice and thick I hope this will help me get through the liquid diet

Got a call Tuesday...I've been approved for surgery and is set up for Oct 3rd. They rushed my approval because my gallbladder is in bad shape. So happy for all the October peoples! Since its kind of quick I've starting getting nervous about getting ready because I haven't bought anything besides the Protein mix I already have.

Yay i have another surgery sister! Im having surgery oct 3rd as well!!!!

Immagetitdown, I guess that is just pre surgery gitters. The pros out weigh the cons, so let's stay encouraged.

Hey ladies so we are patiently or not so paiently waiting for our surgery dates lol what is your goal size and or weight and something u can not wait to do or wear

I'm 281 right now I actually was down to 267 but add soon as u got my date I wanted to eat all my fab food for a last time. My goal weight would prob be around 160! I can't wait to not sweat while performing routine tasks and I really want to buy knee high boots. And I can't wait to be able to go on a roller coaster I haven't been able to do that in ten years

      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.
