Hi Kelly!

I have my NUT appt tomorrow and will see what she says tomorrow! Had my ultrasound today and they will fax the results tomorrow! Next week I have my last appt which is the psych evaluation! Then to submit to insurance and the wait for approval!

My surgeon gave me papers the first visit and he only requires 4 day of liquid diet before surgery! I don't know why the nurse told me to start shrinking my liver if the doctor told us at the seminar that he don't ask any of his patient to do that unless they are 300 pounds or more! :0/

I sure will Sassy!! I cannot wait to get this done and start my new journey. As far as being nervous I'm not at all. Maybe when the time gets closer, I will be. But, if the Dr. Called right now and said you ready I would jump in my car be there in 20 minutes!!

Lol....I feel the same way as wekl!

      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.
