Alright! I knew there had to be more of us lol. I start my 2 week Optifast diet on 7/9. This is feeling more real as it gets closer but I have so many appts. Scheduled before the surgery, I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with the time I have to take off from work. I have a 2 hour exercise class, a 4 hour education class, preop testing appt, optifast class and a final appt with the surgeon. These are all on different days. This with the time off for surgery will wipe out all of my leave time but I think it is worth it. :).

Hi there everyone

Its going down on July 29th. I am nervous and excited. I am getting last minute stuff like liquid vitamins baby dishware. I got to move a bit more so exercise will become a priority for me. I been watching the carb in take so I guess I am ok there.

Hey guys! Sorry it has taken so long to respond. I've been consumed by funerals they last couple days. My cousins (22 & 23) were killed in an auto accident last Saturday. We buried them yesterday. Very trying and incredibly sad.

With that being said; I'm excited for surgery but just coming through this death process I question whether I'm making a sound decision for me and my family. Life is so precious and can't be over on the blink of an eye. Maybe I'm just still super emotional from the past several days and I hope it passes soon so I'm back on track.

Peace

sorry to hear of your loss hun

That's weird... I have my surgery on July 3rd as well. I am in the pcola area and using lord. I can hardly wait!!! I felt a little deflated when they told me my surgery is in July. Thought it would be sooner

Hello! I am in Panama City, so not too far away. I am hoping for a late July surgery date. I have my last appointment the first week of July and will submit that day.

Hey July Guys! So, does anyone else feel like they are totally obsessed with WLS? I feel like its all I can think about!! Sometimes my mood and demeanor is just total bitch! I feel like I've constantly got this running "what ifs..." running through my head. Does it get better, the anxiety and stress, after surgery? Will my mind ever be mine to think of anything else again?

Yes, yes, and yes! This has been such a long process I would have thought I would have run out of what if scenarios instead I come up with new ones everyday lol..

      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.
