Surgery may 19th! What are some things that helped you get through preop

I made a check list of things to do. Watched lots of you tube videos on sleeves. Try to avoid food funerals

My surgery was yesterday afternoon and I didn't get to my room until almost 11pm. I walked a couple of times during the night. Passed my leak test and got my liquid lunch. So far no nausea, but I've had a bit of pain. No more than to be expected. Now we are on our way home. I'm trying to take drinking in tiny sips. Just lots of them. I also had a hiatal hernia and repair of something that would stop the acid reflux. I'd say we are all doing g great.

      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.
