Really well! I'm barely hungry. A bit on the sleeping side, but that's normal for me at this time of the day.

I've consumed over 90oz of Fluid already! (not all water) That's with de-caf coffee, juice, Protein shake, broth, V-8 and Water.

Peeing like crazy!!

I have a Dr. appt. this afternoon (did something to my stupid elbow...it's been bugging me for weeks, but getting worse. Such a pain!) Then there's a support group meeting at my surgeon's office tonight at 6 that I want to go to. My only problem is that I won't be able to have my "dinner" until after 7:30. I made an extra Protein shake to take along though, so hopefully will do ok until then.

Oh I forgot; Beni, I'm getting RNY bypass plus fixing a large hiatal hernia. I'm wondering if the fluids will be any harder to get down because of the HH area being sore? I know if I get nauseous and throw up it will probably hurt from pulling stitches there. When I was pregnant, I spent the first 4 months each time getting sick all day, so I'm prone to that esp when I get dizzy. (I had to wear sea bands just to get into a standing position.) I sure hope I don't fall into that trap again of getting dehydrated. Ice chips and Popsicles did help tho.

Awesome pic superbariatric! So excited for you today. I met with the surgeon one last time before tomorrow!

Sunshine! Excited to have a same day buddy. I look forward to checking on you tomorrow.

Sherrib- I'm so sorry you still aren't feeling well. Don't stress and get some rest. You'll be there soon.

Hi Tacycakes, I too was super nauseated in my first trimester of pregnancy. It was so bad I refused to have any more babies (did end up with 3 kids but 5 pregnancies). I am sure the hernia will add a little something but lots of people have them done at the same time as RNY. It will be fine in the end.

Okay everyone,

OCT 7th is a mad rush. There are a ton of gladiators going through tomorrow. I apologize in advance if I forget someone. It's getting harder for my little brain to keep track.

Best of luck to:

      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.
