I have 11 days till my surgery I'm ready to do it so far on pre op diet I've lost 22 lbs have my appointment with surgeon and pre register at hospital and labs all tomorrow. It's funny at my class Saturday it was on Mindful Eating so the Psy brought in fruit for everyone to eat to make you think about all the streps that had to go through to get it there the growing picking shipping and pre to eat then she had someone bless the food and had everyone smell it the take a bit and think about it was very interesting how some people smelt the camp lope as a perfume fragrant and how everyone compared even the portions they got 7 post op 3 pre op patients that pre op said the felt they got to much as posed to post op and 1 post op thought she didn't get enough compared to other post op and how I felt watching everyone else eat cause I'm on only shakes if it bothered me seeing others eat she had told me this and asked if I wanted to leave because of this exercise I told her no she even went as far as bring in special dishes that belong to her Grandmother that she using on special occasions it was a very interesting exercise. Then this Thursday we have a cooking class that the chief prepares a meal I going to I had thought it was to be my lat meal but they moved my surgery from 21 to the 14 and if I didn't want to attend cause it was a dinner I told her this was something we had to get used to because of social and family function you are going to be put in these situations and I wasn't going to avoid them just cause I could not EAT its social not just food or eating for being with friends

      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.
