@@Twuzzy, you and I have the 7th! Are you starting to get nervous?

I am getting very nervous. I start my 2week liquid diet in a little over 24 hrs, and am worried about my resolve there. How are you doing?

I'm one of the lucky ones - my surgeon doesn't require pre-op diet. Trying to keep busy to distract myself from the fact that we are just 2 weeks away. I'm both nervous and excited. Good luck to all of us!

Nervous here too! But a wild bout of IBS last week and trip to ER in an ambulance shows me it's time to change. I need to lose weight and give up dairy, beef, and fried food and find a new outlet in life

Well, I start my pre op diet in the morning. My surgery is on June 4th. Wish me luck, I am going to give her hell and hopefully come out on the other side better than I am now. ;-)

I am scheduled for June 27, 2016. I start my pre-op on June 6. It was kind of weird, a lot of people seemed to be on a stricter pre-op diet. I have a fatty liver and my pre-op diet consists of 4 Protein shakes per day, lunch and dinner is either a Healthy Choice Frozen meal with vegetables or 6 oz lean meat with one cup of vegetables. I was surprised at this as every diet I have seen online has been so much less. I really want to make sure my liver shrinks so the surgery can be done laproscopically. I am having the surgery done at one of the top hospitals in Massachusetts and a very trusted surgeon so I know they have experience at what they are doing so am following exactly as they say

      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.
