My surgery is December 4th and I also am feeling anxious. Started my pre-op diet last week, it's not easy so I'm very eager to just get this over too!

I have a two week liquid diet that consist of Protein shakes and applesauce or Jello that is it. I sure hope that I can stick to it. Thanks for letting me know about the other post Lambert. What is do you have to do for your liquid diets?

My pre-op diet is 3 shakes a day using the Bariatric Advantage brand, and one frozen meal under 300 calories. I can also have fresh veggies, chicken broth and sugar free Jello. I'm on my 9th day and have dropped 9 lbs. It's not easy, and maybe even more so living in a house where everyone else is eating what they want but I'm just keeping my eyes on the prize!

My surgery date is 11 December. I started my pre-op diet on the 27th. I was trying for the sleeve but my insurance would not cover this "new" procedure. I am actually looking forward to my surgery as I have battled with my weight for the past 31 years

      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.
