Couple more days!! I know your excited. I didn't have the best first week as far as pain goes. I'm a wimp. Also I had no apitite which is to be expected, but please please drink plenty of fluids, I let myself get dehydrated and I started to swell and get sick. Now I'm better. I actually ate some refried Beans this weekend, they were so go with some sour cream but I could only eat about 3 spoons full. I have never been full in my life and now I can't believe that two-three bites puts me over full. Lol I love it. Good luck and keep us posted!!

I'm 12 days post op, for some reason I slept all day today. Literally didn't wake up till 530. Now I feel aweful. I was supposed to start my walking today. It rained so maybe that made me sleep. I can't wait for y'all to have your surgery. It's so nice to have support from people who will actually be going through the same thing as I.

      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.
