Melanie, I had the gastric bypass surgery (Roux-en-Y). My Dr. mentioned that this procedure could be outpatient, in and out basically. But nooo way for me. I chose to stay overnight.

So far so good. Lost 14 pounds since 02/12. Take care everyone.

This pre op diet is killing me. I'm down probably 10 lbs with another week to go. I'm snowed in the last 2 days and have picked up knitting again to keep me busy. It's helped some. Plus it's hard to exercise and I'm tired I guess it's the limited calories. But one week tomorrow I will be on the other side. Just trying to push thru.

February is rocking and sounds like everyone is moving along. I had pre op today so now just a little over a week before take off. I have given up sugar and caffiene on my own and stuck to it so far. There is a desire to binge though since I don't have a pre op diet...only one day of Clear Liquids. I just hope I have a smooth time as well.

I am going to finally have to tell my MIL who lives with us. I have put it off hoping her new place would come through and I wouldn't have to listen to her negativity. But alas it will be another opportunity for me to practice not punching her in the face. :)

Dr. Found a hiatal hernia which the doctor repaired also was adhesions but all went well. my oxygen has been dipping down. I am very sleepy but wanted to give everyone a heads up. I DID IT.

      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.
