My surgeon isn't requiring me to do a pre-op diet either. I thought it was kind of weird since everyone i see has to do one.... the anxiety and nervousness is killing me though. July 28th can't come soon enough!

I'm going through a barix clinic and they are not requiring me to do any preop diet, other than the day before so my stomach is empty, not sure why that is. But I'm so anxious to get started!
Btw, my name is Brenda and I live in MI. We have the same big day awaiting us :)

Welcome! I am having bypass on the 19th.

Thank you ... I'm anxious about it. Not very nervous just more excited to get my losing on. It's also the first time I will be leaving my girls overnight since they were born 2 1/2 years ago. How are you feeling about surgery? I went for pre op today, so I feel like its becoming real!

      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.
