One week left and I am sooo excited! Surgery date 2/24. I just need to concentrate on finals at school, but it's a little tough- I'm a little distracted:)

How exciting! My last week went super slow and fast all at once. It was almost painful. But you will get there, I promise! And we will all be here waiting to hear how you're doing. You got this!

I don't have finals, but my spring break is next week... And the last almost 2 weeks on this liquid diet have distracted me SO much. The diet and the surgery. I can't wait! Good luck with finals!!

Only 2 more days!!

I can relate on that one. Everything I've been "eating" the last 2 weeks I'm sick of.

Whether your tastes change or not, your stuck "eating" the same "foods" post-op. lol. I get hungry sometimes but it's so much easier to manage

Good Morning. Today is surgery day. I'm leaving for hospital shortly. Surgery is at 2pm. I'll post soon as I can to let you know how all is going. Thanks for all the good advice, wishes and prayers for a successful surgery. My scale dropped 2 lbs this am. I wanted a before surgery weight.

See you on the other side. :)

      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.
