Feb. 15! One more week. I have followed my pre op diet religiously and had lost 9 pounds. Now I have put on a pound. I guess I need to work out more. I haven't been quite as good at that. Good luck to everyone!!!!

Hello Everyone! I am new to this site but my surgery for the sleeve is tomorrow 2/8/2016. I look at is as my birthday and gift for a new life. I am extremely emotional ( nervous, scared, excited, etc.) and haven't slept in a week. All I've eaten all day is banana chips, chicken broth and Clear Liquids, not because I was given a special diet, I was just told to keep it light. My only concern is what is the level of pain I will endure? I don't ask people who have had the surgery about pain because everyone's tolerance is different. Well good luck to each and every one of you with an up-coming date. I'll keep you posted.

      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.
