I had surgery this morning. I'm doing well. Sipping a lot and walking every couple of hours. Definitely have pain but laying on the heading pad helps. They don't want me to drink anything besides g2 gatorade and Water. I'm not hungry at all. I have to pee every few minutes it seems. Good luck to all!

surgery date: May 14

Just wanted to give an update. It was a pretty rough morning, however; I'm feeling a little better this evening. The surgeon said he had to fix a hernia during the operation. I've walked and its ice chips, sips of Water & pain meds every 2 hours. Thanks for all the prayers. I'm on the losers bench!!!!

Looks like May might be out of the question for me. Insurance denied my approval based on some technical mumbo jumbo. I now have to see a different Psych & get another evaluation. The surgeon's office was notified of this on the 9th, yet I am just finding out today from an insurance letter I received in the mail. The surgeon's staff didn't even see fit to call & notify me. Anthem says I have "a few days" to submit the correct documentation or else I will have to go through an appeal process that can take up to 180 days (by which time I will not be insured). Grrr! I just want to cry!!!

      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.
