Hi:

I'm new here. I'm scheduled for surgery on the 24th and can hardly wait. I'm in my second week of Optifast (gack!) so I'm pretty cranky, but I'm not cheating darnit! I'd rather just be cranky <g>. (I'm really sensitive to aspartame so the Optifast is triggering my Migraines all the time).

Looking forward to having the surgery over and done with and seeing you all on the other side.

Amen to that! Had my preop testing today and will see my surgeon for the final consult tomorrow. Gonna spend the rest of the week getting things ready at the house and work. I have lost 15 pounds so far. Hopefully my liver is nice and shrunk.

      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.
