I just left the surgeons office and shocked at my date. Less than two weeks away!!! Im about Ready to Pee myself I'm so excited and nervous. Any suggestions for what I need to get done in the next 13 days??

I've been going to appointments with the weight management portion since October since its been a long road but I can't believe it's happening so fast. I don't have official approval with my insurance but the surgeons office says it is approved. I suppose I'm afraid some how it's still not going to happen.

I am the 22nd as well. If I were you, of start ordering some Protein samples and figuring out which ones you like. I've heard that tastes change post surgery so samples are great. I have also stocked up on sugar free jellos, crystal light to mix with Protein, broth, and ready to drink protein (adkins advantage are good). I just got insurance approval, it took only a few days. Very excited! We have a group called April dates if you wanna join everyone there!

      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.
