My surgery is Nov 26, gastric bypass. I started this restricted liquids on Monday. I have my nutrition meeting, history and physical and meet with the anesthesiologist tomorrow.

I drank a ton of Water and crystal light and went for a walk when my husband brought home KFC. I got through it without cheating so I'm proud of myself.

I have seen the nurse ,dietician and the social worker I had already seen Dr Smith who preforms out of St Joes in Toronto but asked to switch to Humber as its closer to my home as I am driving over an hour to get there. They agreed to allow me to switch so now I am seeing Dr Wyngh on Nov 20. They told me that I wouldn't have to see dietician or social worker til after surgery as everything seemed ok as far as they wee concerned. i

did have blood work done at the last visit as well.

Well next visit is to meet greet and get your date and pick up Optifast for 2 to 4 weeks . It's usually six weeks. Make sure you get dr smith office number and call and get your date the same day then your on your way whoop whoop your doing good. Process is easy took me from referral in may and had surgery nov6.

      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.
