I am having VSG tomorrow! (7/5) packed my bag this morning and headed to Walmart in a bit to get a few things I want to have at home when I get out of the hospital. Laundry, cleaning all that so the house is good to go when we get back. My kids are at grandmas until next weekend so hopefully I will be up and around by the time they get home. They've been gone since 6/14 so I miss them terribly. Good luck to you! I'll keep you in my prayers tomorrow!

I'm praying for each of you. I'm sure sleeping tonight is out of the question and each of you are wrestling with a few mixed emotions. However, tomorrow is going to be the best day of the rest of your lives. Hang tight and walk fast! #blessings

      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.
