January 30th....I have snuck in at the end of January! I am so excited. My dr. does not require a pre-op diet (except for the Clear liquids and surgery prep the day before) AS LONG as you lose 5% of your weight. So, I had to lose 14 lbs. I go see him tomorrow. If I have lost that amount, I am good to go. If not, then liquid diet of BariatricAdvantage shakes only. I am right in the bubble at 14-18 lbs lost. You know how your weight can fluctuate day to day. I am so worried I am going to go in there tomorrow and it will be up and I will be a little short. I am being very careful this week as to what I am eating and making sure I am getting plenty of Water in so that I won't be over. I am also just going to wear a slip and flip flops to weight in. LOL - JK!

      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.
