Going to be getting up around 3:30 or 4 because I have to wash with that soap and be there by 5:30am. Not scared or nervous at all right now just excited and anxious. Wish me luck!

Best of luck, time flies by before you know it. It will all be much easier than you expect (the entire process). The fear is what is the worst I think, but relax, you will be fine.

So happy for u.. Keep us Posted on your progress. I am 5 weeks post op..and my relationship with food is so different. I had one day of meltdown around day 6. Post op. I just wanted to binge on my favorite foods.. I even cried. But after that day. I did not look back. That was my day of true reality. I don't think of food , or obsessed , as I used to be. I have to consciously think of eating a meal..otherwise the day could pass me by without eating. Of course.. I would get weak if I went too long without eating. So now that the holidays are over with., I am on a schedule with my eating. I know u will do great.

      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.
