Hello everyone!! I am in the process and tentative date at this time is May 6th. Still have to have EGD, which is scheduled for April 3. I will have a three week preop diet, so I have been exploring shake and yogurt options, also Protein Water for after surgery because I will be on Clear Liquids for a week. May will be here before we know it:). Go team May 2015!!!

Hey everyone! I just got my date, too! I'm May 13th, just like you Less of Jess...

I don't start the liquid diet until 5 days pre-op, plus I need to get my Upper GI, labs, and EKG done.

Good luck with the tests! I'm glad to have a surgery date buddy! For my insurance I needed to do all the tests first. I ended up racking up $23,000 in insurance paid for bills last year...

      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.
