Hello To All March RNY folks,

I can not believe this, at 5:00pm today I got a call from my surgeon's office and finally my insurance gave the go ahead. I am having my surgery this coming Monday, March 11th. I am so excited and nervous all at the same time. I cannot believe this but after 3 years of going back and forth it is going to come true. I amso ready for a new life. My knee's are hurting me all the time and I am just sick and tired of the person I see in the mirror each day. I hope everything goes well for me. I have 3 days to surgery day. I am having trouble slleeping. I better get my overnight bag ready on Saturday. Good Luck to all my March buddies. I hope to hear about each of your journeys. Have a great weekend.

My surgery date is 3/27. I just started my pre-op liquid diet today and my Dr has me on it for 10 days. I'm hoping it at least goes by quickly and I'm not starving the whole time. Getting anxious!!

      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.
