It seems like the last six months have flown by. I remember thinking, "April is a world away!"

I've stocked my pantry with refried Beans, unsweetened applesauce, various Protein Bars, PB2, Unjury chicken broth, and Protein Shakes. I even bough a nifty new food processor for after the surgery. It feels like I'm nesting!

My surgery will be April 3rd. I'm starting to have these mini waves of panic/excitement every once in a while. Thank goodness for this forum! You all keep me sane and informed :)

I know, right?

Getting excited. Nervous too. But far more excited.

Right now just stocked up on SF Jello and string cheese for pre and post-op.

Have a dietitian (RD) appointment Thursday so might see what good post-op foods she wants me to have.

My finals were literally on the same day, and one day after my surgery. Thankfully uni had them moved to a week earlier for me. And there was much rejoicing.

Hey everyone! I have my last dietician appointment on Thursday and should be finding out my surgery date pretty soon. I have to do the 2 week pre op diet too so I'm thinking I should be sleeved Mid April! I'm so excited! I am loving this application. Makes is so nice to be able to actually talk to people going through what I am doing. Hoping the best for everyone and hope to see updates!

      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.
