@@ssflbelle Day one of liquid pre-op down, 13 to go! The pre-op is not Clear liquids, it is sugar free Jello, SF pudding, cream Soups (no chunks), thinned cream of wheat, broths, Decaf coffee or tea, SF popsicles, nonfat milk. But I have to watch how much I eat because I am limited to 800 calories.

@@L.o.v.e Thanks LOVE! Day two is almost done with! Just enjoying a bowl of cream of potato Soup that has been whipped to a full cream! Kinda glad to be going thru this right now. The warm Soups are a comfort on these frigid days! Couldn't imagine doing them in hot, humid days!

Your right summer heat and adjusting to food and body changes could be challenging. Keep up the good work...

I am February also!! Glad you enjoyed your holidays, even if it wasn't exactly what you were hoping for. I know that waiting is frustrating. I also had to do the 6 months of supervised dieting. I have my pre-op visit on Friday so I'm sure I'll be starting my pre-op diet and all of that! Excited to find other people on a similar schedule to mine!!

Just think you all will be smoking hot this summer

Is it wrong to say I kinda fantasize about this being a real possibility this summer? I want to wear a bathing suit that doesn't have a skirt on it!

      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.
