Hello everyone! I'm on the final count down. my surgery is Tuesday April 9th at 1pm. (i wish it was earlier in the day) oh well. I'm kinda getting discouraged by all the people that say why don't you just exercise? You've already lost weight, just keep doing that. <_< It's frustrating to tell "my story" over and over and to have to explain why this is a good decision. Meh.

I'm worried I'm not prepared enough for once i get home. I think i have to order more protien shake mix tomorrow. I'm on the Unjury shakes now. I've heard that it's good to use the bariatriac advantage post surgery. any thoughts?? :blink:

I know what you mean about people saying, just keep doing what you're doing and cancel your surgery. UGH! Really annoying! They have no idea how difficult it is for people like us, which is why we are undergoing such a drastic surgery to help. Anyway, as far as the Protein Shakes, as long as they are low carb, you can use whatever tastes good to you! I love my Syntrax Matrix strawberry Cream and Syntrax Nectar Fuzzy Navel :)

Hey Everyone quick question...during the liquid diet pre op how many shakes do you have a day? Today I had four and I'm not sure if that's too less or too much?

Probably best to ask your nut what they want you to do. I have 3 to 4 a day plus a light meal.

I have a silly question....With the IV's in your arm, how do you put your arm in the sleeve of your own PJ's and robe?

      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.
