Are you nervous or more excited?

Right at this moment, I'm more excited! However, I think it will hit me on my pre op appt. on Tuesday. I keep saying, omg, omg, its less than four weeks. I'm feeling so anxious that I will probably get so nervous soon. :-)

I haven't lost much weight. I was actually nervous that if I lost, there would be a possibility the insurance wouldn't approve. Lost about 9 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I'm sure when I start my pre op diet I will lose a few pounds. :-)

Wow, good for you. At least you have already started the weight loss! How much have you lost? What is your target weight goal after surgery? My target weight is 130 lbs. which I need to lose about 120 lbs. It's sounds like so much. It's basically half my weight. I will try like heck though.

      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.
