My name is Senekua and my surgery is scheduled for the 25 this Thursday.... I'm not really scared but nervous about my new life style change....I'm praying I won't mess up.. Far as eating and drinking my cousin had hers done in December and she says she had to chew her food really good and sip when drinking

Hi there, good luck with your surgery Thursday. Mine is next Tuesday and I have the same concerns. You'll do just fine, take it slow.

Good luck with your surgery! I have my first doctor's visit on July 6th and I wish I was where you are in the 'journey'. After researching the surgery and reading blogs, I realize even more that this will be a total life changer. I am ready for it! I am sick and tired of being in my current state.

Stay focused, be honest with yourself and I'm sure you will succeed.

      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.
