Tomorrow is my day!!! I still haven't cheated, but now that I'm down to my last day I keep thinking 'omg, I'll never have a double whopper with French fries again!' Lol. I know I can't cheat now cuz It's too late, but that keeps running through my mind. And Saturday will mark my daughter's 3 yr remission date from leukemia and in 11 days It's my 25th birthday and I can't Celebrate either with pizza and cake :( Maybe by my birthday, I'll be able to eat an egg or refried Beans with cheese.< /p>

It won't be in your stomach bc you have a couple days still left and you have to do the bowel cleanse with mag citrate that will take it all out.

I didn't have to do the bowel cleanse beforehand.

I'm not doing a bowel cleanse either. My surgeon said if you stick to your pre-op diet, that's enough of a cleanse.

Mine is at 9:30am est

Okay, best wishes, good luck. Keep posting and lets us know how you are doing on that journey to a new you. Will watch for them. I love this sight as it is so supportive. It will be 8:30 my time so will keep you in my thoughts, because I'll still be wide awake dreading the placement of the IV(s). Of all things to dislike is that, some are good at it others suck.

So today makes one week post op plus the pre op 10 diet and I'm down 14 lbs so far!! Woohoo!! Only complication is that I'm apparently allergic to the steri strips they used on my incision sites and my made me itch like crazy! He approved of me taking them off and for Benadryl today so I'm sure it will clear up shortly.

      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.
