4th here. I'm ready. I did better on the pre op diet than I ever thought I could. Was hit with big NYE party, slapped in the face with reality of how much food plays into my social life. I did fine though. Even sang karaoke for the first time in my life. Good luck everybody!

My surgery is scheduled for the 4th. Getting a little nervous/anxious as my weight keeps fluctuating n the last couple of days. I've called my doctor, but of course the office is closed today. I'm afraid they will post-pone my surgery if i'm only 5lbs down.

Best of luck! I hope that wouldn't be a deal breaker for you.

I don't think there is anything that can prepare us for this! No matter how much research I have done, I still don't feel prepared. At this point, it is an educated leap of faith! You will do great. I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

I had surgery last Easter for a ruptured appendix so I have a general idea of what to expect. It's probably harder if u never had a similar type of surgery because u really don't know how you will react.

Getting excited and a little nervous, mainly because I'm a single mom and don't want to be away from my baby. But it's for the best. My surgery is scheduled for the 4th at 9:30 am. I've been binge watching My 600 pound life in anticipation.

      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.
