Same here except I only have to do all liquids tomorrow. It is very interesting all the different pre-opt diets and what they have you do and when. I am going to do liquids today also just to be safe. My surgery is at 9:45 am.

I am nervous but excited to see where this takes me.

I bought a few baractric cook books for my kindle. I know I'm going to be 2 weeks liquids and then 2 weeks purred.... I bought some baractric all in one Vitamin wafers and about 100$ worth of Protein on line....

Do you use my fitness pal? Its a great site for taking nutrients and calories.. It's a bit like face book for people trying to loose weight or get in shape.

I did almost the same thing. I am all stocked up for the post-op liquid phase. With all the Vitamins and crazy amounts of Protein.

I am on fitness pal. It is how I have been keeping track of how little I have been eating. It is funny it doesn't allow you to save or complete the day because of how little caloric intake I have. It never goes above 1000 and the app says that is not healthy. Least It keeps me honest and on track. Great tool though.

Hey Beme, I made it home just now. Feeling exactly the same way. Just trying to hydrate. I have yet to try a Protein shake. Saving that for later after I get my meds. Wife is getting them for me now. My stomach hurts also if I take more than 2 sips in a row. I have been just doing 2 sips every 10 minutes seems to be working. Can't wait for the ends of the week, when I am feeling much better. How is your activity level been? I am able to get up and walk around often without much trouble. Least that is one good thing so far.

      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.
