Congratulations! :) Do you have to do a post op diet?

Yes, my doctor offers Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacements. On them for 15 days before surgery. Today is day 1, so far so good! =)

Good luck on your journey thus far!!

@@sleeveittobelieveit my surg date is Jan 28th. I'm excited, but today for some reason it's really hitting that I'm about to have surgery!!! This will be my first time having any kind of surgery. I'm only on liquid diet for one day before surgery. But for the last 6 wks I was on high Protein no starch diet. I was telling a co-worker it's hard to not think about it when the day is so close now.

      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.
