Like I said before, I have really bad heartburn all the time so my dr is going to be checking for any damage and a possible hernia.

On a side note, I'm kinda bummed as my Nut appointment that was scheduled for this Wednesday was rescheduled for the 20th. But.... I'm still on the fast track (at least in my head) to getting this surgery done.

:D

I just had my first class with the surgeons office on Monday and now I'm patiently waiting for my Nut appointment on the 20th. My endo was rescheduled for next month but other than that It seems like everything is on schedule so far!

I met with the surgeon and case manager today for our first appointment. They are looking at either the end of July or early August for my procedure. I have blood work and an EKG tomorrow and then need to meet with the Psychologist before we can move forward.

Awesome for you! I started the Protein Drinks for my Breakfast and only 1 glass of pop a day. Losing a pound a day. Drinking lots of Water for first time in my life. Easier than I thought. I also like the shakes

Don't blame you st all. It's all I can think or talk about. My husband said he wished it was now, cause all I talk about is the weight loss and exercise. Lol

Glad I'm not the only one who is obsessed with having their surgery! LOL! I think since I made this decision, I've been driving my friends crazy with surgery talk. LOL! I even joked with my co workers about being happy that I won't be able to eat much after surgery the other day. This is an exciting time for us all!

My second class with at the surgeons office is going to be on June 8th. That only leaves my endo and the final class before surgery can happen!

:D

Rwoods200 My next appointment is also the 8th. My endo is the 5th. Sounds like we'll be having surgery around the same time.

      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.
