I have decided to postpone my surgery which was to be 10/29. My mother passed away suddenly and unexpectedly nearly 2 weeks ago. This has been a great time of stress and grief in my life and I'm just not ready for another shock to my body. I will reschedule a few months down the road once I feel like I'm ready to handle the next step in this journey called life.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Losing a mother is one of the hardest thing go through. My mom passed away 3 months ago unexpected. We later found out she had heart disease. I'm very very sorry.

I am also sorry for your loss. I wanted to congratulate you on making the best decision for YOU right now and waiting. That couldn't have been easy for you. I think you are smart to wait until you are in a better place to make all of the changes for your new lifestyle.

      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.
