Agreed! I am so ready to just get this done already! I have been researching/planning/counting the days for over a year...let's do this already!

Started my pre-op today. That's not a lot of fun, knew this would be the hard part, but it's not too bad. This time next week, we'll be DONE with surgery!! :D

Sooo....since we still have 6 days of fabulous pre op diets to survive, I'd like to focus on some of the NSVs that we're looking forward to. I know we all have several we could list, so let's share what you're excited about.

Me? I can't wait to wear a pair of jeans (or anything for that matter) without my "front a**" hanging out! (I have a lot of extra skin from my pregnancies/ c-sections, and that coupled with carrying around extra fat...gives me a big pooch in front...like an a** in front. HATE it!!!) I wanna feel good and look good in my clothes!

What's yours??

I think I might have mentioned this before. I am so SO looking forward to go "shopping" in my huge own closet for all the sizes 12 down to 8 I still have from 5 years ago :)

And this other thing is going for a swim in public without feeling totally insecure !!!!

There are several things that I'm looking forward to-- probably the biggest is to get rid of the power of fear- fear to try new things- fear in how I look to others- fear of how I look in clothes- fear of how I look without clothes on- fear of trying yoga, or jogging because my mind erases the can do it before I even try.

I'm so excited to becoming a better me!!

On the downside- I'm never sick, and I'm now starting on a Zpack today. I can't believe the timing- I should be home in bed, but that wouldn't cut it at my job since I'm taking a bunch of time off for surgery!

Good luck and I'm so excited for all of us!

I am so ready to have this done and not be so nervous. I am excited at the same time for the new me.

I am looking forward to wearing white jeans again and looking nice in them. The other thing is sleeping soundly, no apnea. Also, I have a vague memory of being a cute girl once upon a time. I'd like to see if I still am. :P :P

      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.
