Jackie, when I did my UGI test in the hospital I was there for 5 hrs, I was so frustrated that day. But it all pays off girl! lol hope your finally done w/endoscopy.

Soooooo after being there six hours it was cancelled! There was an emergency in the OR.... Totally sucks! Now my paperwork isn't going to be submitted until 3/24 and my surgery is scheduled for 4/2. I hope insurance approves me in time!

Awesome u are only two hours away from me! My anxiety is getting high too! I'm still super excited but anxious. I start my liquid diet weds so that is my next step and I'm nervous for that. I know I'm going to need extra support for the next two weeks.

My surgery was just approved 2 days ago and is scheduled for April 2nd as well!! I am so excited and nervous to!

I am currently separated & my husband and I are working on possibly reconciling, however he doesn't like the idea of me having surgery to lose weight! In fact he has told me NOT to lose anymore! So I will gladly be there for you as well because I will need a buddy to!

      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.
