Anyone have the EGD before surgery? I go on Monday and I am a nervous wreck! I had to get one as a little girl and I will never forget that procedure ???? I am more nervous abt this procedure than I am the surgery.

Did anyone demand to be put under?

I had one, it wasn't bad actually, but I kept swallowing so that was uncomfortable.

@@zizi_tops I'm a Northern Girl myself, Connecticut to be exact!!! I was required to do a High Protein, Low Carb for two weeks then 2 or 3 days before surgery Clear liquid Diet... However, I'm probably do all Clear liquids starting Friday. I have my EGD scheduled on the 13th, so I figured since I can't eat or drink anything after midnight Thursday, what a better way to start off! When do you start your Pre-Op Diet?

I'm scheduled for February 15th. My doctor does not require any type of liquid diet or otherwise pre-surgery, but I'm thinking about doing one regardless, just to make the surgery safer (and to jump start my weight loss). Would any of you be willing to share what you're doing/did? I haven't yet met with the NUT (and I plan on picking her brain, too), but I'd love to hear from all of you as well.

Congratulations to everyone who's recently had surgery or are in the final stages of prep! :D I'm so excited for Feb 15th!

My preop diet isn't completely liquid it's 1 Protein shake 2 meals (4 oz lean meat 1 to 2 cups of veggies) the first week and 2 shakes one meal the second week. 64 oz of Water and if you're hungry they allow for a Fiber drink such as benefiber or Metamucil. I also do another Protein Shake if I'm still hungry, I have to stay between 1000-1200 cal and I use premier Protein Shakes, so not very many cal. In them. Hope this helps some! Good luck:)

      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.
