This is by far my favorite thread here at this forum. Every pre-op member should read through every post. It is a great motivation while going through the whole process. Keep sharing everyone.... on July 23 I will be one step closer to sharing my own NSVs.

I was thinking I wish someone had given me this info as I was gaining weight... you won't be able to touch your toes. You will get winded coming up the basement steps. You'll stop being able to fit into a booth. You'll spill over the edges of a chair... etc. I don't know if it would have helped me exercise more or eat less or get help sooner, but geez. I gained it so slowly, I didn't realize how much my life changed for the worse until it started changing for the better again!

      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.
