Ahhh!!! I can't believe it's almost here! Tommorow!! I'm so nervous. Doesn't help I just kissed my 3 year old bye bye for the next 2 days. I've never been away from him and he was very sad :(... But everyone is in my thoughts and prayers! Keep us updated if you can. We got this! It's almost time for our lives to change for the best! :)

What??? I am fine. Ashley called me Thursday from Dr. Juarez's office and delayed my surgery until Mar. 18th! She said Dr. Juarez was cancelling all of his surgeries this week. Sending prayers and good thoughts your way. I'm sorry I won't get to meet you tomorrow.

Dont mean to snoop but it seems that you should definitely call tommorow and ask why your surgery was canceled....the real reason! And if they say" because he will be gone "you say but my friends surgery is now at that exact same time with the same doc.

I called. They said they moved me back because i had a more complicated case, and he was leaving on Vacation on March 6th. He wanted to be available if I had any complications. I don't know whether they were telling the truth or not, but what can I do. I am ready for the surgery next week. @@StephanieM, I am glad you had your surgery, and I hope you are doing well.

      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.
