My surgery is on Nov 18th.. only a few days away. My pre-op diet has gone well for the most part; however, i did have a few cheats (after doing well on only Protein shakes all day) where i at the small pieces of chicken and vegetables that were in my Soup. Only supposed to have broth.. and i did have a steak street taco one night. I've had my Protein Shakes other than that. I am down about 12-15 pounds. I see other people who are allowed veggies, sugar free popsicles, chicken breasts, etc.. .so hopefully i will be ok. Wishing you fellow November sleevers all the best !

My surgery is scheduled for November 19th. It seemed like a long process but is here already. I am on a full liquid pre op diet and not having any problems so far. The Protein shakes are filling though the sweet taste is getting old fast! Not really nervous, more just hoping that this is really the right move as once it's done, there's no undoing it!

I'm on day two of my 5 day preop (see my previous post on this thread) and I have a full blown, raging sinus infection. I'm pushing liquids and any remedy I can think of to get rid of this as quick as possible. I hope I can get rid of this before Wednesday.

My surgery is on the 18th. My doc did not put me on any liquid diet. I was just told that I have to have only Clear Liquids the day before. I am getting anxious...

      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.
