Good luck to everyone! This is really happening, guys, it's OUR month!!! Ahhhh!!! I go back and forth, back and forth on emotions. Happy, excited, anxious, terrified, depressed... it's such a ride. 10 more days for me!

Me, too! the emotions are crazy. There are sure a lot of us having surgery on the 10th--I'm so thankful for this support group. Hang in there everyone--we can do this!

Started my liquid diet nov 16... 17 days no cheating I've honestly amazed myself didn't think I could do it..... 7 more days

Me too! It's been a full 2 weeks and no cheating! My dietician threatened to cancel my surgery if I aimed weight so that was enough for me...I guess the 20 lb loss is okay too :)

Praying for each and every one of those having Surgery this week. (I hope I am one of you but that remains to be seen) Regardless I am with each one of you in thought and spirit. I pray for uneventful surgeries and quick and easy recoveries.

Hugs to you all. You got this.

I have been looking for this thread under the "Monthly Groups>2012>December" thread. There was only one post there and then I added mine last week-I didn't know there was an active thread for December. I wonder if anyone else is looking there? Or am I missing something? Not sure--I'm new to this.

Also, I read that a new thread had been started for December post-op. Maybe that's in the post-op forum, I didn't look but will.

Anyway, I wonder if the monthly place would be a good place to put the threads so that we can easily find December 2012 by looking there. I'm not sure how or if it could/should be changed and/or copied--just a thought for other lost souls looking for the December 2012 group.

Good luck everyone!

Has anyone on the liquid diet cheated? I'm having such a hard time with this! I just ate some Soup but I didn't strain it... I ate everything in it. I'm so horrible!!

I cheated. Today I had a slice of cheese. Yesterday I had a small piece of chicken from panda express and a couple days ago I had 3 frys. I'm so bad! :-(

Good luck to everyone this week. We have one week to go. I know being the spouse is not the same as the patient but I really am the only support team my husband has and this is slot of responsibility for one person to have so I will be looking to y'all. I hope you don't get tired of me. We just moved to hot springs, ar and I have no one here to help or even to talk to.

      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.
