I AM ALIVE. It was not bad at all. I slept mostly. Never was wake long enough to post. All I did was go to bathroom and one small walk. Did have a couple bouts of nausea but they were not as bad as pregnancy nausea. I think the pain meds are working really well. I slept like a baby. Good luck today, I am the biggest chicken on earth and this is so doable

This is going way better then expected. For those of you waiting your turn. Don't worry, this is fine. I am having a relaxing hospital stay. Turns out my hospital has single rooms for the Bariatric aisle. During my walk I counted 20 patients from my doctor and other area doctors.

The other thing is I have used nothing from my luggage.

      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.
