I went for my psyc evaluation and three hour lap band class and saw the surgeon today and surgery is set for 4/19. It seems like I was just at the free seminar yesterday, but it was really 3/10. Today I made out a check to the surgeon for 3,725.00:faint: and I start my two week liver shrinking diet tomorrow. SO ALOT FOR ONE DAY!! I am feeling strange now about all of this, I think it is just that is moved so FAST today that I am not fully adjusted yet that this is becoming a reality. So, tomorrow I have to go shopping and get all the Protein items and veggies to eat for the next two weeks. BTW, my last supper was pizza and you know what, I didn't even feel like eating more than two slices!!! Weirdo!! I must be getting:sick ..LOL...anyways I am joining you lapsters this month!!:clap2:

      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.
