Ok so my surgery is march 6,2013

I've been on a all liquid diet since feb 18,2013 with the exception of a salad.

Since Monday march 4,2013 I've been suffering a horrendous Migraine. I'm convinced its my nerves for this upcoming surgery. I don't feel nervous but the way this migraine feels I'm figuring that's it. I've always suffered from Migraines they've gotten worse since I was pregnant and found out I have high blood pressure. But now it's like a never ending pain I haven't slept cause it hurt so bad and they don't want me taking aspirin but I had to take some excedrine just now cause that's the only thing that heals my headaches and prayers! Please y'all keep me in your prayers and congrats to all us marchers!!!!!! We all January thru December ate all special people embarking on this journey as 1! Much love and prayers to all. I'm going to try to sleep before my son awakens

Glad to hear you are feeling better, do not mean to laugh but you sound like me. It is either my head or stomach that hurts. Good Luck you will be just fine I am having my next Monday. I am so scared but I know I need to do this. Take care.

      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.
