I'm June 9th...have my preop testing Tuesday. I guess it's really gonna happen! I don't have a preop diet so I've been spending time going through my closet, packing up the nice winter stuff in bins and bagging up the old beat up big winter clothes. I won't throw out the bags or donate the nice stuff until after surgery, just in case something happens but I'm looking forward to never wearing size 16s again.

I went today to sign my consent forms for my surgery this coming Wednesday the 4th and had my last visit with my nut before surgery. I told her that I was doing great on my two week preop diet but on Memorial day it was a train wreck. My 8 year old son went with me today and was telling my nutritionist everything that I ate that day. Lol I was thinking "Wait til I get him outside". Lol On the other hand I lost 12 lbs since Monday. I feel a little better now :) I just noticed my ticker saying 4 more days. it's really sinking in now.

That is funny about your son.. Good luck on Wednesday...

Thanks Zelda. you too. you're right behind me. :)

I know what you mean. I have been spending alot of time on BP since I got approved... even more since I got the date. Maybe after, most of my questions will be answered, but I would like to see how people are doing, to be able to share the successes with someone who's going through the same thing.

      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.
