That's so good that you only had to stay for one night. I stayed for two. Keep us posted on your progress. Have you gotten hungry yet?

Mine was on November 16th. I stayed 2 nights. My main pain is gas in my shoulder. It comes and goes but when it comes it's excruciating. I was supposed to have rny but when he got in there he saw a giant hernia that he had to repair and when the dr did my lap band 8 years ago he put it to low. So he couldn't do bypass cause where he would make the cut for the pouch would be right where there is major scar tissue from the band. I am happy. I was made at first half that I had the sleeve and not the bypass when I came out of sedation but I think I was just in a bad mood and confused. I know I can lose the weight I need to with the sleeve. I want to lose about 140 pounds.

      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.
