I'm scheduled for the 22nd as well! I can't wait. I started the pre op diet a week early because my bmi is over 50. I'm currently on day 9 of a three week pre op diet. The first four days were horrible, but it got better fast. I am so excited that there is no room to be nervous! I head to Tijuana on the 21st.

Having a hard time on my diet , the Protein Shakes are awful and not sitting well with my stomach , hoping I can continue and get pass this, right now I just chug them down fast to get it over :(

I'm having the same issue. The shakes aren't sitting well with my stomach. I'm suppose to have 4 1/2 a day and yesterday I only could manage 3 and same thing today. I feel like if I drink another shake it's going to come back 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.
