Thank you both, I am going to arlington tx to a dr clayton frenzel. He is very well known in that area and had a good cash pay price for me. He also does the whole process from beginning to end for his patients , like breast , tummy tucks, body lifts. Etc... I think I will need a boob lift later. Lol!! So I look forward to my journey. Good luck to you both. Missmeka86, & jperez89

My surgery date is Nov. 4th! Getting really nervous about the big lifestyle change coming. Not sure I'm ready for it. No pre-op diet for me. Just liquids the day before.

Hi shutterbug33! Congrats on your date!!! The lifestyle change is a big commitment. I was really concerned about that too when I 1st started considering surgery. Then I hit 308 lbs and that was enough needed for me. Well we're only a week out. I'm very excited!!!

      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.
