My date is June 22nd. I'm nervous but also excited. The pre-op liquid diet has been hard but I finally have it under control. I started at 264 and am down to 240. I hope to lose a little more before the surgery since my doctor said he sees better outcomes with more weight loss before the surgery.

I don't have the best support at home so these forums are a life saver!

This is the place! Sounds like you are off to a great start!

You might want to find someone in your circle that you can talk to In person. It helps even more!

Good luck with surgery!

Thanks for the good wishes! Today is the big day. Surgery scheduled at 2:10. May need a hiatal hernia repair, too. Hoping I can still do the single incision procedure.

In a way I kind of wished for a hernia and gull bladder removal during surgery. Get all done in one shot. No suck luck. Other than my weight and some body aches because of my weight I am healthy.

Best of luck. Take it slow the first few days. Hopefully you bounce back quickly.

Had surgery yesterday at 4pm, a couple hours late. Because of the hiatal hernia I couldn't do the single incision. Feeling ok and walked for the first time at 10pm. Looking forward to drinking Water and seeing my family today.

I'm so upset right now... My surgeon cancelled my surgery because he is going to be out of the country and don't know if he will be back by the 29th. So I had to stop my 10 day liquid diet and wait for my new date. really really sucks

      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.
