I will only have hubby home for the weekend ( my surgery is on Friday I'll be home Saturday) then he has to go back to work and I'll be left to care for my 5 yr old who doesn't need me much anymore and my 10 month old. I'm hoping to have him til at least Wednesday and If not I'll have to get friends over to help bc I won't be able to lift her. I'm also having an umbilical hernia repair so it's important that I don't over do it. I just had my first preop with nutritionist to discuss post op diet ( met with her for 6 months previously) next week is my second and last visit with nutritionist and preop testing (ekg blood work meet anesthesiologist) then meet with surgeon to discuss last minute questions ( I have a few). My preop diet starts 2/1 and is high Protein low calorie diet similar to diet one month out. Surgery on the 17th. I'm super excited but also super anxious. Getting really real now. I'm glad I don't have a liquid diet bc this one will be hard enough. But good practice!

      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.
