I really dont know what to call today. I into the 24 hr countdown. 24 hours from right now I will 3 hours away from my son and heading into start surgery.

What am I feeling? Um.. like tgis is not real. Like tomorrow is not going to come. Nervous, maybe.. I will be leaving a part of myself there at the hospital. Dont get me wrong.. I dont want it back but its just weird leaving a part of you somewhere, forever.

I am also beyond excited! Excited to start this new journey to see a healthier me, to be able to keep up with my son! Moat of all I am excited to climb to the top of Badger Mountain and not want to fling myself off the side of mountain just to get down! Lol

Anyone else going in 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.
