Slogging along. Trying to adjust to my new limitations while not letting myself get dehydrated. Still a little sore. Taking it one day at a time. Very much looking forward to progressing to full liquids in a couple of days. Onward and upward!

I'm doing really well no complaints. Doctor I have makes his patients to a blood thinner injection for ten days after surgery for pulmonary embolism thats the worst part right now. I realized how much I ate because of boredom before surgery.

Well tomorrow is our date, wishing you all the best of outcomes, I think I'm doing pretty good as far as nerves are concerned, keeping myself busy cleaning house etc. Don't forget your glasses if you wear them! I'm drinking Propel zero all day for my Clear liquids. I take the magnesium citrate at noon, I'm sure that won't be fun!!! I won't be able to keep in touch after today for a few days but will let you know how I'm doing as soon as possible!! Will be thinking about you all!!!!

@@irishaggie I was writing this when your message came up on the other site lol!! Hadn't heard from you in awhile & I was going to message you to see if you were still a go!! Glad your still with us on this!!!! Can't wait to see our results!!!!

@60&goin4it… Lol, great minds :)

Thank you for thinking of me… It is football season for our three boys (6,10,13) and between practices, games, work, AND this darn liquid diet, I've been too exhausted to participate much. I'm off work today and trying to fit it all in… I'm badly in need of a pedicure, lol… thought only clear on my fingers, right! :)

Thank you for the glasses reminder. I just thought of that this morning; putting on my contacts is a daily habit for me.

What is the magnesium citrate for…?… my doctor does not list that as a pre op requirement for me. I imagine it is to "clear the system", lol? :)

I'm glad to hear you are doing well and moving along with preparations… We will all touch base as soon as we are able, post surgery, and share our status… so excited! :) Not nervous yet, my mind is just spinning with "to do's"…

      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.
