My surgeon was also Dr. Huacuz. He and his staff were excellent. I had my suregry March 20, 07. To date I've lost 65.5 lbs. Victor the driver, is a jewel. I can't say enough good about the staff and his facility. They have this wonderful out of this world mango juice, they start you out on after surgery. It is so good I've been ordering online. They even sent a carton home with me. As for the pre-op diet, this is what I did. Four weeks before surgery I started practicing the diet as such. Since you only have a few days left, just keep in mind the long term goal. You can do it. When you are in doubt, come here for support. You are about to begin a new life. By the way when I had my surgery, I had to use a cane or wheelchair to get around, I was also on several medicines. Not anymore. I walk everyday and I take NO medications at all. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

      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.
