I just had my pre-op NUT appointment. She went over my pre-op diet, and my step-by-step post-op diet. I start my pre-op diet tomorrow. I also made all of my appointments through August. :)

I have my pre op appt Friday and I'm hoping the doc gives me a binder with food guidelines and stuff so I don't have to rely solely on the Internet lol.

My pre op appointment was yesterday. I made all payments and also signed all concents. It's so good to hear the girls in the office say "see you after your surgery!" My surgeon gave me a binder and all guidelines to follow before and after surgery on my first appointment with him. They also gave me a bunch of free samples of Vitamins and Protein shakes/suppstitue

Started my pre-op diet on Monday (op on 16th Feb). I'm starrrrrrving! Think it's my worst day so far. Sorry for the whinge. I know it's to help everything be nice & detoxed but it's hard. 3 shakes & dinner is 2 cups of green vegetables. not happy but weirdly happy the journey is starting too! Sorry for the download.

This is my clear liquid day #2. Only two days away! Surprisingly my nerves haven't went up yet! I'm slowly making a list as I still have to work until day of surgery and also start back up a week after. :/ but I am a cash pay so I have to make money! I'm so excited to start my new lifestyle with all of you!!!

      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.
