My date is also June 30th and I also started my liquids yesterday. Not too bad of a first day thankfully. I've been at this for about 6 months now and am ready to get the show on the road. Feeling some anxiety but ready to go and get on that losers bench myself! Good luck to you!

Who is doing your surgery?

I'm getting mine done in Norman by Dr Ronnie Keith

I'm hoping the 10 day diet will fly by lol

I'm just sooo ready I feel like iv been waiting forever! :)

I am sooo very nervous about the Enoxaparin shots, I really don't like shots and I'm not sure if I can give myself one! :(

I hope everything goes well for you!! It's cool chatting with people who are having the surgery on the same day!! :)

I'm having R nY on June 30th also! I've started my pre-op diet. My diet isn't an all liquid diet. We can chose between Protein Shakes or lean Protein with non starchy veggies not to exceed 1200 calories. Today was day three, I wanted to snatch the egg roll that my co-worker was eating out of her hand and shove it in my mouth while running away. I'm hoping day 4 will be better.

My date is Monday the 23rd. So close! I didn't have to do a liquid diet. I had a low carb, low fat diet. I'm glad so I won't be burned out on the protien shakes before the surgery. Tomorrow is bowl prep day. That sounds fun eh?

I live over an hour from the hospital so I have to leave my house at 4am to get to the hospital for my surgery. I'll be up around 3am. I figure, I might not even go to sleep that night. After all, I'll be getting some rest on Monday....

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
