Really, see we have UMR and we have the 6month wait too and classes. I also had to have a psych eval, sleep study (which sucks) , PCP sign off saying it's ok (clearance) and it seems like I'm forgetting something but not sure what, it's all turned in though I already checked. You would think I was in a hurry or something lol

@, it's just hard to sleep with all the wires attached to you and knowing someone is watching you sleep made it hard for me anyway. Imo

Do they give you anything to help you sleep? How long do you sleep for? Do you need to stay awake the night before? Thanks for answering my questions!

the sleep study wasn't bad. By the time they hooked all the wires to me, I was ready for bed.

My testing did not give me anything to help me sleep. They want you to try to achieve a typical night's sleep. You shouldn't stay awake the night before, however I'd recommend you not take a nap that day and try to be tired for the sleep test. Maybe do some extra walking/exercise that day. I had a hard time sleeping for my test and worried it wouldn't be enough sleep, but in the end I slept for 4-5 hours (broken up) and it was enough for them to work with.

What pre-op diet are you following? I only have to do Clear liquids for 3 days. But I have to replace two meals with shakes until then and my surgery date is June 6.

      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.
