I found this in another post and thought it may help some of us. There is an app called 'rxmind me' that is available I know for iPhone and I think for android. You can set reminders for your pills on it. Also saw another app called waterlogged to track Water.< /p>

Well starting my pre-op liquid diet today. All very exciting. I have my nutritional shake to take but not sure what else. Will be in contact with my dietician first thing this morning.

This is gonna be hard I think. As I have a conference this week.

But I know it has to be done.

Hang in there!!! You can do it! :)

Don't be surprised if they tell you shakes only and be prepared for the headache.

Been waiting in pre op for about 3 hours now waiting for the operating room to be free. Met with anesthesiologist and doctor already. I'm hungry and thirsty trying not to think about my mother and daughter in the cafeteria eating a steak and cheese and fries! Lol

Instead think about all of the energy and new cloths you will have from not eating steak and cheese! Best of luck with your surgery check in and let us know how you are doing once you feel up to it.

They aren't off eating they are just in the waiting room. They are waiting to hear that you are doing great.

      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.
