Thanks. Dr Suh at inland valley hosp in murrieta. I have to drink only liquids the day before and he told me to start limiting my starches now.

I didn't quite make the 10% goal. I definitely can not gain before surgery

I lost 5% and I was cleared..I think as long as you're showing progress, you'll be ok..

Tomorrow is the day for me...super nervous and many things going through my head today. Hopefully I'll get some sleep tonight.

@ iwhit<br> Been thinking of you and wishing you an easy breezy recovery.. Please share how your doing when your up to it :-)

Thanks to all of you. Well, the surgery went well but since then has been really rough for me. I was supposed to leave at noon today but couldn't due to my nausea which is causing me to vomit any liquids :-/ so hopefully tomorrow is the day.

Hope you feel better soon. Rest and heal.

Thx guys...so I'm feeling 90% better than yesterday. I am no longer nauseated and can drink Water without terrible pain. I did get a patch for nausea behind my ear so I probably feel better because of that and time. I've had a bad history with the anesthesia and nausea. I really asked myself why did I do this and was regretting it since I was so miserable but tried to remember the words of those on here who said it would pass. I know I'm not out of the woods yet but definitely feel a whole lot better.

      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.
