My surgery date is 12/15. I have to do a 2 week pre-op diet- it's 2 Protein Shakes a day and one meal. I meet with my surgeon tomorrow for the last pre-op visit and the nutritionist in 2 weeks.

Good luck to you! It'll be nice to have someone to go thru this with!

Mine is December 4! Because I am a worrying I am trying not to worry something will come and cancel it. I need to relax I know!!! I have insurance approval so I know it's a go!!

I'm always afraid to jinx things.

I wish I had a preop diet to do to take my mind off things or feel like I could do something already!! 3 weeks!!

I am so ready for this

My surgery was originally scheduled for December 10th but now it's been moved up to December 3rd! No preop diet just Clear liquids day before. Preadmission testing on Nov. 26th. I'm so excited. I tend to be a little reclusive so I'm looking forward to having some partners in this December Surgery Group.

      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.
