Hi! I'm new to the group' date=' awesome to see such a great online support system.

After a year of working towards this, I go in for surgery tomorrow morning Jan 10. Getting nervous for all the what-ifs but trying to keep my positive thinking and meditation cd in mind![/quote']

Sweet! Another surgery buddy. How are you doing today? I was nervous but the Colyte took over and I have a feeling that's going to quickly change to miserable soon. I honestly don't think I can finish that whole bottle, BLECH!

Ok - I need to know if anyone else has had this reaction. I started my liquid diet on Monday and at the same time, eliminated caffeine. I was not a huge caffeine person, just one diet coke every morning. I did fine on Monday, but came down with an awful headache Monday night (which I totally expected from the caffeine withdrawal). What I did not expect is the hours and hours of vomiting that I had to deal with yesterday as my body went through it's withdrawal. IT WAS AWFUL!!!!!!!!

Just curious if anyone else is having trouble either with the liquid diet or giving up caffeine.

Good news is I have lost 12 pounds in 2 days! :)

PS: I recommend joining the December Post Sugery forum as it's filled with helpful information. Gen (one4ozzie) mentioned this before. I'm going to start one for us too. We can keep our thread going as the Jan post-opers grow and continue to support, share, ask/answer questions, stay in contact with each other, etc.

All the best-1 more day and I get to join the losers bench! Woot woot!

Thanks for this, it's great to see all of the surgery dates in one place. Good luck to you tomorrow, you are in my prayers!

Thank you lovealways-the hospital just called with my surgery time. I could just pinch myself! It only confirmed it for me, I KNOW I'm doing the right thing, there is NO hesitation at all. Just wish I could be more open with others in my personal life about it.

I arrive tomorrow @ 7:30am, go in for surgery @ 9:30am. Doing bowel prep today, so continuing liquids until 5:00am tomorrow then only Water and approved meds. They also reminded me not to use deoderant/make-up/perfume after my am shower the day of.

That amount of weight loss is amazing! Congrats! I'm sure you are so stoked. I too gave up caffeine rather quickly and even though I only had about 1/2 cup of coffee and maybe 1/2 a regular soda a day-I also had withdrawls. I suffer from Migraines, so I had to factor that into my reaction and think you might need to also. I didn't hurl when I started liquids like you but I was really holding it back; I'm not surprised you were that sick, but sorry you had to go through that, it's no bueno! experience

      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.
