Hi October family!

I'm up October 19th. I've been feeling so good and confident throughout the 3 week liquid diet, but then today I got this knot in my stomach and this fear that something bad might happen during surgery.

Ron's wife's post scares me. I have a 2 and 4 year old and I just need to be there for them. I keep telling myself it will be ok. It will be okay. It will be okay. It will be okay. Kinda like that. Lol

The posts where people have had successful surgeries and are feeling good- you should know how much your words calm me and make me feel better.

I hope Ron is okay.

Anyway, I'm glad we have this place to share our journeys. Xo

@@anewme2015 Remember that most of these surgeries go off without a hitch. You are in good hands. My heart hurts for Ron and he is in my prayers everyday but I also have so much faith in his will that I believe he is going to conquer every obstacle before him. Just as I believe in you and your ability to meet this head on and begin your new, healthier life! As Ron would say, 'you've got this!!!'

I just want something savory so bad (anything but broth that is!!). Kev but some lobster bisque Soup in the VitaMix last night and I liked the tip of the spoon about three times. It was delicious! !!! But ohhhhhh I paid dearly!!!! Worst gas pains ever...all night..never 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.
