Congratulations! I just got approved by my insurance and that's my date, too! I'm really nervous! I'm trying to kind of sneak this in without my work knowing about it, because it's highly personal and I don't feel that it's any of their business. So, I have my endoscopy this Friday and then surgery on 10/7! I'm so ready! I've been fighting with diets and my weight for so many years and I'm tired of it. Can NOT wait to lose it, regain my confidence. I've not purchased any new clothing for almost a year because its so dreadful to shop, really horrible. I come away almost in tears.

Just think where we'll be in say, 6 months! Good luck!!

@@kris10bsmith@yahoo.com how did you handle the work thing? This is the position I am in, and not sure what I am going to do. I don't want to tell everyone at work about this personal decision, but I do plan on taking a few weeks off of work, so the questions are going to come up.

      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.
