Hey njgal, Nutley here too, crazy!

Hey neighbor!! Are you pre or post-op?

I'm pre-op and currently going through the motions of qualifying. So excited to read this forum, it's helped a lot.

Sure, I would like that. Have just completed all my requirements and am waiting for insurance approval. My surgeon is Bradley Marker in Dothan. What about you?

That's great! Dr. Scott Robbins is my surgeon and I absolutely love him! I had a surgery date of May 9th but there were complications. I lost about 15 pounds on my 10 day liquid diet, that wasn't enough to shrink my liver. I was so devastated!! So I'm still on a liquid diet & I have no surgery date. I'm trying to keep the faith, but it's so hard.

      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.
