Omg yes, I meant 12-30-13 lol silly me.. It took me forever to conceive my cardiologist (had coarctation of aorta surgery in 2000) and she's making me do all these tests. I know she's being careful but I am fine. Can't wait to get my clearance. :) yay congrats to you too

I cannot even describe how amazing I feel now. I am 6 days post op and it feels like I just did a bunch of stomach work outs. The gas pains are really subsiding and the bloating is down a ton. I have lost 14lbs in 6 freaking days!!! Protein Shakes, Vitamins, and Water. That's my method! Lol. People are even starting to comment on my face and belly shrinkage! I LOVE IT! You guys are in for a great time!

      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.
