I don't have the same date, but close, November 12, and I am excited AND scared at the same time!!! I'm in Northern California. Do you have to do the liquid diet prior to your surgery? I see my surgeon this week to get final details. Good luck and best wishes to you!

Hi I'm a Jenn too.... My surgery is November 4th I live an hour south of Washington DC in la Plata Maryland . But my surgery is in Northern Virginia at Fair Oaks Hospital in Fairfax Virginia. It's about an hour and 20 minutes from me. But the surgical group is the center of excellence and that's why I chose them. Good luck to you on the 5th I'm trying hard to stick to my pre op diet but it's tough. I just had a party for 70 at my house yesterday for Halloween and have so many leftovers including sweet leftovers it's torture not to give in. Wish me luck and I'll do the same for you. Take care... Jenn

I'm having surgery Nov 10th in NH. I used to live in Fall River, many years ago when I was attending UMass, Dartmouth, which was SMU then (that's how long ago I lived there.) Best wishes!

      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.
