Hello everyone. I am doing my clear liquid diet this weekend to have surgery on August 15. I survived yesterday yeah I end up feeling weak and had a headache by 530pm. It is now 230am and I'm have all this energy. I hope today is better than yesterday. I keep thinking I'm almost there I can do it. It's hard but when u want something bad enough you can do it. If I can do it so can you!!!! Be proud of what u have accomplished and think of what all will be accomplished after surgery. Think positive and positive will happen. Also I'm down 4 pound from yesterday morning. Have a great day everyone.

You can do this, so exciting your surgery is almost here, I had my surgery on the 11th doing well, I was very worried before surgery about gas pain I heard they were awful. A friend of mine had this surgery and she told me it was very important to walk as soon as they would let me which I did so I walked often in the hospital after surgery I was sleeved on the 11th and went home on the 12th. No problem with any gas pains. I too had headaches on the liquid diet. I attributed to no coffee. Good luck with your surgery.

Thank you for the advice. I will be walking around as much as they let me. I want to be able to go home to be with my daughter. Thanks will keep posted.

      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.
