Hi ladies looks like we're all in for the month of November. My insurance should have proved me in the next 10 days or so. Then surgery is 4 to 6 weeks out. I'm going through Bluepoint Surgical group in Virginia and having my surgery at Fair Oaks Hospital. I should be the first week of November . That's my goal. However right now my goal is not to eat everything in sight. Trying to do some Protein Bars and Protein Shakes instead of meals now and then and chewing my food a lot more. I'm not too worried about the surgery but I'm really worried about the post op getting the Water and the Protein in. How are you guys doing with these weeks leading up to the surgery?

I don't think it has hit me yet. Maybe when I get insurance approval and a definite surgery date I will be more focused. Im not worried about surgery either. I've been doing the Protein Shakes as Breakfast and trying to stay away from fast food. My mom found my baby plate and spoon. Im excited to use it again post op. I will eventually start practicing for the real deal. I did join the ymca and start swimming again. Im sure we will get there together...come on November!!!!

November will be here before you know it Dee. I just hope I don't have a lot of " last suppers" before my surgery gets here or I might gain some weight. Going to the gym 3 days a week just riding the bike right now but hoping to start lifting some weights soon . Ttyl

      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.
