I was scheduled for June 19th, but they rescheduled it for June 17th. I'm nervous and keep second guessing this choice. I'll be having a large hernia fixed and I'm afraid I'm entering a world of pain!

How is the liquid diet coming along? The first two days were pretty bad with a constant headache. But I'm feeling better now adding some puréed veggie Soups. Still low energy, like having a mild flu. Ugh. It's taking a lot out of me to do little things.

when I got my date I seconded guessed everything myself. I'm terrified of being in pain afterwards. The 1st 3 days after I got my date I couldn't sleep I kept dreaming about being in pain. Another worry for me is what's my skin and boobs gonna look like. But even with all these concerns I'm preparing each day :). Also I'm not on a pre op diet. I just have to do Clear liquids the day before then fast after midnight.

Morristown Medical Center....was that formerly known as Morristown Memorial? That's where I was born.

Many, many, MANY years ago.

I'm having my surgery in Tijuana. I'm starting to get very nervous! "What ifs" are starting to pop in my head, but then I remember my weight would kill me sooner or later.

I have a feeling this is going to be a very long 6 days til surgery. ????

      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.
