My nutritionist told me last Monday my surgery will probably be mid February. I am so ready to have it now. I go for my 6th weigh in (mandatory 6 months weight loss program) on January 21st; she told me at that time we will discuss my pre-op diet.

I have started buying my supplies for after my surgery, this is what I have so far (from my doctor's list):

Gauze Bandages and paper tape

gas-x strips

more Water for my CPAP machine

Vitamins B-12, C, D, Multivitamin, Calcium - all chewable or dissolvable.

I have yet to buy foods, because my kids will eat and drink it all.

I want to buy another bedside table, because mine has a broken drawer and I am tired of the clutter. I feel like I am nesting. Is anyone else nesting?

Here is a sheet which, if you choose to participate, can list all of our surgery dates and progress.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aVqpjHKQORE5adLPPEnRC50R5jbjZpgNWkGTZDGePWk/edit?usp=sharing

This is only open to those with the link. Just add your information. Do not put anything in column D, it will auto calculate.

Then, as you lose weight, you can go in and edit your weight loss by putting a new number in column C.

Remember to put either a minus sign in front of the number in column C or put the number in parenthesis: -265 or (265). This makes the number subtract.

I am scheduled for feb 12,2014 in Mexico, Tijuania.

I am nervous as hell.

I am nervous mostly for after the and how I will work. I took from feb 12 till feb 26th off.

I stand all day but can sit from time to time on my own stool i am bringing.

I work as a veterinary receptionist and it is actually a hard job at times. having to go grab heavy food for clients run around and do this and that. and the hours are long.

My job is not understanding at all. I am more scared about that then the real matters at hand like the diet i need to starts jan 30th before surgery and eating afterwards!!

I have my Surgery Class, Meeting with Director of Bariatric Program at Hospital, Ultrasound and labs on January 22nd and then my psych eval on January 29th here at my local clinic. I think that counts as my FIFTH month so February would be my sixth month....so now I'm thinking I probably won't have surgery until March. But, here's hoping!!!

      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.
