Good luck! I've been fine up until today. I have a bit of nausea and a slight headache. Have not felt hunger at all. Although food commercials don't help haha

Yeah, I have a DVR do I can fast forward commercials. When I get hungry, I have chicken broth and that satisfies it.

I find the chicken broth makes me sick. It started in the hospital so I've just been doing premier shakes, Jello and cream Soup.

Today's the day -- getting ready to head over for 11:30am surgery. A bit anxious -- but mostly to get it over.

I'm Nov 22nd....and very nervous. Anyone else's doctor NOT require a liquid diet prior to surgery?

I was not required to do a liquid diet either... I thought it was weird and ask them about it and they said they rather you get used to eating like you were supposed to....so you're prepared for after surgery... to eat correctly...

They required a bariatric diet which consists of meat... veggies...and fruit... and only Water and Crystal light (sugar free drinks) to drink... also sugarfree Popsicles... limit to three a day... I have surgery on November 21, 2016....

There is a Facebook page specifically for bariatric support for anybody that has their surgery in November etc. if you want to join???

I'm doing okay. I went in for RNY and had to the sleeve because my intestines are twisted. I'm being discharged today since I'm doing okay walking and drinking Water. Can't bend over to get my shoes on so will need to ask a nurse for help. Just waiting for my sister to come get me.

      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.
