Ok I just got told I can have the surgery! My weight goes in between 207 to 220. I have to stay where I'm at so I can get it. Now I'm doing it because the women in my family get big in are 30s so I know I'm up and down but I can't get out off the 200 and I don't want to go up more so that's why I'm going for it. My mom also had problems getting the weight off and she had the gastro by pass and she is doing alot better. My surgery day is Jan 18th and I'm so nervous lol. Is there anyone out there that is new to this?

My surgery was based on my first visit weigh in. !y dr wanted me to lose weight, I guess to prove that I could do it. I started at 210 on my surgery day I weighed 194. Not a big loss but it helped to prepare my mind and body as to what was coming after surgery.. good luck

Diet cranberry juice has been my saving grace-not too sweet not too tart. It isn't easy so far...

      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.
