This is fantastic, there are more June dates than I thought there would be. I had my date months ago, so I was waiting and waiting, I seen all the April buddies, then the May buddies and finally US (JUNE). This experience is going to be here before we know it, the time has just been flying by for me.

What does everyone have to do as far as a pre-op diet and for how long? I have a 10 day pre-op diet that I start on May 29 and it's just low carb, high Protein, thank god NOT liquid!

Opti-fast diet for two weeks starting June 8. Four shakes a day, one cup of broth and sugar free Jello and Popsicles. That's it for two weeks. I hear it's rough but I don't want my liver getting in the way so shrink away. I should be working on that now but I am busy saying farewell to some bad foods that I will not bring back into my life after this surgery.

Now that the June people are posting it does seem so close and so real. Wishing you all well and that we stay in touch!

      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.
