Hi, I am schedule also for Dec. 8. I wasn't planning on having surgery until next spring sometime, then I found out that I had to have it by the end of this year. I am ready for it but still kind of shocked it is happening so fast.

Today I start my two weeks of shakes and vegetables pre-op diet. I am so excited to leave my "weight" behind and get on to my new and healthy self. Dec.8/14 is going to be the beginning of a very positive journey that will change my life for the better. How is everyone else feeling that is starting their journey or how are you feeling now if you have already had the sleeve? Share your journey with us newbies! Happy Monday everyone!!!

      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.
