Im getting sleeved on the 22nd. Just met my surgeon yesterday dr. Zelada at kaiser west la , he was impressed with my weight loss since my options class. He offered me surgery on the 22nd, next Wednesday! No pre-ob diet just Clear  liquids the day before and no eat or drink after midnight. I was so suprised.

Surgery in just 6 days, and of course I have a cold. So scared I won't get well enough, and they'll have to postpone.

How are people doing? I'm 4 days post op, came home after 2 days, had solids today (my programs have you on solids by day 4, but it has to be chewed to puree) I had horrible gas pain at first, but that is almost over. I have gotten a sinus infection on top of recovery, but slowly getting better.

I'm down 6.6 lbs since surgery, 19 lbs total since March 6th.

Congratulations! It's amazing isn't it? I remember when I first started last year and how long I had to wait. Now I feel like time just sped by me. Surgery on Monday and I can believe it's finally happening.

      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.
