Had my surgery this morning. I'm feeling ok. Just sore. They still haven't told me to go walking. The bad part about all this is that I have to stay the night and they are making share a room.

Hey everyone!

Spent most of the past two hours going through this thread. My surgery is scheduled for the 28th of September. The hospital I am having my surgery at requires that I get a medical clearance within two weeks of my surgery so I am getting that done tomorrow. I am so nervous. Started my pre op diet. It has been hard but I know it will be worth it. How is everyone feeling in regards to nerves?

My surgeon is amazing. He has amazing reviews and most of the teachers I work with/have worked with and other school employees got the surgery done with him and all have great things to say.

I called the nurse because I was thinking about backing out and was nervous about dying and she laughed at me. Although that should have pissed me off it actually calmed my anxiety. If that Facebook group is still available I would love to join. Because of my weight I am tremendously shy and don't really talk to many adults. It would be nice to just have other people to talk with.

      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.
