Yay! My surgery date is December 19! I go on the 29th for the two preop classes and physical (this all seems a little redundant) I did 4 BL classes and a nut class already

Does anyone know if everyone has to attend the Option classes? Or what the requirements are for them? I met with Dr. Baggs and have my psych appt at the end of the month. I'm at goal weight right now so I'm just focusing on continuing to lose.

@@necarv usually you have to take those classes before they book you to see the surgeon and psych. As long as your at goal and you pass the psych evaluation then your usually good to go. I struggled with losing weight so I had to take the lifestyle classes, do the psych eval and then I saw the surgeon.

      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.
