I have to be there at 9 tomorrow and surgery at 12. Let's do this!!! Did any of you have to drink a whole bottle of Miralax today? I just did and it was pretty horrible. But I did it and I've almost made it through my clear liquid diet today without starving to death. Amazing the difference the Protein Shakes made a few days ago when I could have them.

I'm eerily calm. Slept like a rock. Check in at 11. My mouth feels like a desert and I'm waiting on a mirage to show up with g2 and crystal light and wait.....what is that???? chicken broth and strawberry Jello? ??I'm so excited to share this day and experience with all of you. I'm sure we are all going to do so great! Hugs! I'll check in on the other side.

      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.
