I am also having surgery on the 14th. I am totally freaking out. I am seeing a therapist to help me with emotional eating. Oh my heck. I am allowing myselt to feel my feelings. The fear has been crippling the last couple of days. Last night I read some of your posts. I felt so much better. I have been researching this for two years and felt like I was totally prepared. All of the sudden I am so nervous. It is weird that I am nervous about pre-op and barfing after surgery (I don't do well post anathesia). I am totally fine with everything else. I want to thank you guys for your posts. You have no idea how much it helped to know that some of you are nervous too.

I am having my surgery on the 14th as well. May I join you on the loser's bench?

Thanks so much for all your posts. I read this the other day and loved it.. Thought you might too

"The only things that stand between a person and what they want in life are the will to try it and the faith to believe it is possible!"

So excited to have such support and encouragement .!!! Day 5 of preop, just waiting for the day!

Pre-op diet killed me today!! I was starved all day... Caffeine headache withdrawal on top... :(

But... Staying strong.... Tomorrow's gotta be better!

Thanks for the nice words HappyGirl .... And I can totally relate Kat...

How's the low carb pre-op going green eyed girl?

It's great we have a diverse group getting sleeved all over the place on the same day.... So nervous and excited.... I have been quite emotional ( which isn't like me) at the thought of the post op negatives, but also in a good way also thinking this light finally be the tool that helps me get to a healthy weight!

Hope you all had a great day...

Rhonda

      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.
