I'm out on Route 80 West, in Hopatcong. I will be having my surgery in Mountainside Hospital in Montclair with Dr. Strom. I I know exactly where Hackensack is. I used to live in Lyndhurst years ago and also have relatives in Rutherford. Have you had all your tests done? I have one last visit with my nutritionist and cardiologist in Feb. Then I guess I'm good to go, hopefully. We can definitely be buddies.

Well, I am having some anxiety about it too, so we can definitely talk to each other. I haven't talked to my surgeon since September and he said we would have a pre-op appointment, but I haven't heard anything yet. My nutritionist said I should definitely call and set up a date. I will probably do this tomorrow. :)

      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.
