That's nice. I can start a few days after you do. Then after a week of that soft foods for a week and back to "normal" foods...whatever that may be. Drank my last 2 oz of milk of magnesia. Ready for bed but I have a feeling I won't be able to sleep much. Excitement and nerves are kicking in!

140 here. I'm wide awake. Did not sleep very good. Need to leave in about 45 minutes. It was snowing here when I went to bed. I'm hoping that I can sleep on the drive, I'm not very pleasant when I don't get my sleep.

How are you doing ladies?! I'm up and walking around. I was really nauseous in the beginning but am not starting to come around. Have been up walking and got myself dressed. The pain surprisingly isnt awful.

      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.
