My date ie 7/14. I am a overweight(31bmi-not enough to qualify) but I have a pyloric stenosis so they are going to do combined surgery which will help in the future with my health problems. I feel bad due to always being extra skinny before cancer in 2012. I am looking forward to getting healthy!! :-)

July 14th! Very excited. My hubby had gastric bypass in December and has lost over 140 lbs already. I'm so excited to finally get started. Tomorrow will be day three of my liquid diet and I feel like I could kill somebody for a cheeseburger. Lol.

Thank you! He is doing amazing. I can't wait to see where he ends up in a year. It was hard to sit and watch him while dieting and getting minimal results myself. Excited that I can finally join him. I am hoping that today will go a lot better for me. I felt crazy all day yesterday.

I keep reading how difficult the liquid diet can be. But, it's doable. This is just one step closer to where you wanna be. Keep pushing through and good luck again.

      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.
