Hello shaylady08 I am leaning more towards the sleeve but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm having the sleeve too. I scheduled my surgery last week. Jan 30th. I'm so excited. My work schedule has been held and I have preop class on the 10th.

@@kc13 they are hard to find. Even on Amazon

@@necarv why did they switch?

Liz called me today to see if I wanted to go in on Monday instead of 1/9! I said no at first but told her if she didn't find anyone this afternoon I'll take it. Nerves setting in. My hubs is on Wednesday and we were nervous about being 3 days apart and logistics.

@@krissyfattofab Dr. Baggs isn't working that day. Guess I have bad luck cause Dr. Z did the same to me too and I had to reschedule. I can't really reschedule the surgery as I already have time off from work and my family is flying in. Hopefully there areno other changes from here.

@@necarv you might want to see if you can make an appt with him. The pre-op classes are all Liz and the "physical" is with a regular physician.

Doesn't look like surgery is happening for me Monday. Probably better. Don't know how it would work out with me and the hub having it the same week. So back to the original 1/9 date....

      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.
