Hi!!! My date is Sept 21,2016. As far as your weight fluctuations between doctors visits. The same thing is happening to me! For the most part what I understand is as long as you are showing change in your eating/workout habits you will be fine. This is y we are having the surgery in the first place. It's a tool to add on top of what we have learned pre-op. Best wishes to you I am rooting for you! Stay focused! Stay positive!!

Ugh I have to start my liquid diet today and do it all the way to the 9/8. I dont know why my doctor has his patients on it so long but I'm dreading it! I have to force myself with the Protein Shakes after like the 3rd one.

On a side note, my good friend had the DS surgery on Wednesday and she is recovering well. Its nice to be going through it with someone, and know almost exactly what I am in for (Im having the RNY Bypass).

Hi Melanie, I'm from London aswell and I'm having my surgery on the 15th September. I am extremely excited and very nervous at the same time. I only got my phone call yesterday.

My surgeon is Mr Ramar. At Kings College London. I haven't had to pay either due to health reasons. I start my milk diet on the 1st September.

Where are you having your Op?

Wishing everyone all the best and hope you all get what you wanted from this major Operation and new life change.

      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.
