Good luck everyone! I am supposed to start my liver shrinking diet June 1 but am planning on starting a few days early to make up for some food funerals. I'm having real fears about being able to do this (give up the food). I was doing really well on the medically supervised diet until recently. My surgeon allows coffee but am thinking maybe I should cut it out. Anyway, after researching and waiting for so long now that it's almost here it seems unreal.

We really have a whole bunch of folks having June Bypass Surgery. That's great. Let's keep in touch and support each other. I have my Clear liquid day starting Monday and Tuesday. Tuesday I will also do a bowel prep with a bottle of Mag Citrate.

I feel like I've got a bunch of stuff to get "organized", so here's my tip for all so far.

Take a day or two off before Surgery. I wish I had done that. I'm working tonight and Monday night. I'll need to sleep some on Tuesday Morning which doesn't give me a lot of time on Tuesday to get ready!

@@Lemm61 Good idea on taking off before surgery. I am Tuesday, June 7, so taking off the Monday before, plus the weekend to make sure my house is ready and I am rested for surgery. Want to give myself every chance for success. No pre-op diet, so just eating healthily, with a few scattered food funerals. Good luck with your bedroom reno - post pics when you can.

I'm june 29,2016 Is anyone having trouble with smoking? And if so will you call your surgery off if you can't quit in 6 weeks??

I don't have my surgery date yet...but quitting smoking is the hardest thing for me!!!! My surgeon tests for nicotine and would cancel surgery....I have to quit!

      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.
