I led you astray! Sorry about that! I don't start my pre-op until the 10th (I think). I'm not looking forward to it.

Not in Canada, sorry. It's not so far away, though. I'm a couple hours from Vancouver, BC.

Oops... I was in the wrong place too... September 2015!

Here I am, 11 days from my sleeve surgery- September 2/16!! The sweetness of the shakes and bars are torture and so far, I haven't been able to get through my daily intake of it. Anyone else having trouble? And any September Sleevers from Canada??

There's alot of encouraging stories - but it seems people who are miserable are more vocal. ????. Just remember - your hormones are wacky after surgery and what might seem like a huge mistake 5 days post-op will be the best thing you have done a few weeks later.

      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.
