I'm scheduled for Dec 7th in NYC.

Haven't been approved yet, I have my final clearance with my pcp this coming Monday. I have a cough I've been trying to get rid of because my surgeon said we can't move forward if I'm coughing the day of. This is a very long and tedious process but I know it will be worth it! I had h pylori, recently my stool test came back negative. I don't need anymore obstacles going forward. Good luck to everyone!

December 1 in Spokane. Just had my pre op this week. I feel surprisingly good about it given all my ups and downs along the way.

Dec 11th is my last day. I plan to go back jan 4th. I didn't think about it but missing all the holiday goods at work is such a plus.

      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.
