WOW with my pre op, I had 12 tubes of blood, urine test, EKG, chest Xray and upper GI. And would have had to have a sleep study and gallbladder ultrasound if I hadn't already had a CPAP and no gallbladder!

I started all of my appointments in June of 2012. Since then I've had a barium swallow, at home sleep test, psychological evaluation, nutritional coaching, and had a health coach for six months which was required for my insurance.

I'm a healthy 26 year old non smoker so that's definitely helped!

Things have been a bit spread out because I've been studying my Masters degree in London.

So nervous for Wednesday!!!

      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.
