Hey there! I'm scheduled for 2/26 too at 10:00 am. I'm 5'1 and currently 258 lbs. I've lost 10 lbs so far on my 2 week pre-op diet. I can only have Clear Liquids and Protein Shakes so it's been miserable honestly. I'm excited though!

Thank you so much for writing!! Mom2hounds is there a Protein Drink that you like? I saw that the Isopure has 40 grams of Protein and I bought a few to try after my procedure. I hear that your taste can change did you experience this?

I did the Premier Protein chocolate and still drink it at least once a day if not more. I just figured out how this sites posting works so I hope you don't think I was ignoring you. Your food tastes do change, or I should say mine did. I used to eat a ton of ice, all blood work was fine, no low Iron, I used to eat a ton of pepper on everything and now hardly none. Changed from loving home made vegetable Soup to eh, it's ok. But you might not do this. It is all individual my doctor told me.I am excited for you, you are already doing it and you will be very happy when it start coming off, which is right away.You are going to do great. My doctor even repaired a huge hiatel hernia I never knew I had and my recovery was still right on schedule. I loved my doctor, in fact I see him this coming Friday for my 6 month check up. I hope he is as pleased as I am.

I hope this is helping you.

Hello Skinny06,

I'm schedule for surgery tomorrow 2/23/16, and scared as helk. I'm not scared about the surgery, I'm more scared about that it will not work, as I'm in full blown menopause. Since 2012, I've gained 83 pounds, I've tried everything, I'm currently weighting 235. I just hope this surgery helps. I'll checkin with you by Wednesday or Thursday and let you know how everything went.

My pre-op liquid diet was not bad, If you drink the Protein shake, for me I had about 59 grams per day, so my energy level was good, did not feel bad at all. I was advised to stop drinking all liquid by 11:30 tonight, so make sure you get your Protein and drink your last Water as per your doctor instruction and you should be fine.

Let's keep in touch.

I am scheduled to have surgery on Feb 26th. If you are having surgery around that date or have already had your procedure I would love to have a buddy to talk to about our experiences. I am currently doing my pre-op diet. Right now I am 218 5'4 and I am hoping to loose another 5-10 pounds before my procedure. I would love to get some advice on the liquid diet after the procedure and what Protein drinks are good. I hope someone reaches out..starting to get nervous.. But oh so excited at the same time!!

How many lbs did you lose with the liquid diet?

      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.
