I'm about to have my upper endoscopy. I'm nervous because I haven't had one before. I'm also worried that the will find that h pylori bacteria and have to push back my surgery. Keep you're fingers crossed that this does not happen!!!!

Good luck Lou!! I hope it goes smoothly!! :)

Trying to wean myself off the caffeine a few days before my Pre-op diet starts...I don't want to go cold turkey and have to deal with that crazy withdrawal headache! Gotta find some decaf--I miss my coffee.< /p>

I know what u mean!! I quit coffee 7 days prior to my pre op liquid diet...cuz I didn't want it to happen all at the same time. I had a headache for 3 days..by day four I was good to go. Good luck to you with that...it gets easier!

Is it too early to start an April thread? I didn't see one yet.

I'm scheduled for April 22. I still have to finish PCP clearance and psych then insurance approval but don't anticipate any problems. Once I started my appointments the excitement and anxiety kicked in. I started 6 month supervised diet in August....this used to seem so far away and like a vague idea but its so real now. My anxiety is double as my husband's date is march 18 and I worry a lot more about him than myself. How are all the other April folks doing?

My surgery is set for Arpril 1 and I just switched from sleeve to the bypass today! I am excited and nervous to say the least!!

      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.
