Good luck Adam, you'll do great! Just remember to walk as soon as you can and as much as you can to avoid the ghastly gas pains.

Thoughts are with you!

Good luck! I was a nervous wreck surgery day. My surgery went smoothly...my recovery was pretty easy. My hospital roommate situation not so much! My first roommate was an elderly woman who didn't speak English and pooped her bed...twice. Then she moved out and they gave me a lady who had nonstop around the clock visitors, some even spent the night. So those are my "funny" hospital stories. Haha not so funny but these people made me look forward to coming home and made my family look sane!

      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.
