Hi Tameka,

Congrats on your surgery date I am scheduled for 07/30 @ 7:00am, I am nervous and excited to. My insurance required 6 months dietary, so it seems like it has taken forever to get to this point, so I am glad that I made it to the end. Good luck and keep me posted on your progress after the surgery :).

I'm getting sleeved the 29th too!!! So excited to finally be at this point in the process, but very nervous about the pre-op diet! Trying to try out a bunch of shake recipes so I know what I'll like!

I'm also very nervous about the preop diet. I'm an extremely picky eater and afraid I won't find a Protein Shake I can stomach. Luckily, my two week diet is not 100% liquid

Hello! I was scheduled for July 8th but my surgery ended up being moved up to June 24th! I only had to do a liquid diet the day before my procedure and take a laxative.

Good luck with your operation!!

Started my preop diet today. I don't have to do 100% liquid, but I do have to have 3 Protein Shakes a day along with lunch and dinner. The first one I tried was the Unjury strawberry Sorbet with 1/2 pack of lemon crystal light. It is waaaaaaaaay too sweet. Not sure how long it should take to drink 8 oz of a Protein Drink, but its been 40 min and I still have 6 oz left. Should I just chug it?

I'm July 29, too! I started my pre-op liquids today, and celebrated by not screwing the bottom of the blender on right. Ended up cleaning my Breakfast off the counter, the wall, the fridge, the floor, and my shirt.

Only 13 more days!

      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.
