I actually think I have to be there at 7, im not sure on the exact time yet. But luckily I only live 15 minutes away from the hospital emoji1373.png

I don't see your IG name so just request me!

Oh, you are lucky. I live in Indiana but my surgery is in Chicago. Btw, I used to live in NY and my husband is from Queens. I went to school at Iona College. I really miss living there.

I don't have an Instagram account. I'm going to soon since I've been making videos but I haven't posted those either. I'm a person who takes one or two photos of myself a year, so video is extremely scary for me. But once I get my Youtube going I'll have an Instagram account as well.

Anyone starting their pre-op diet on Monday? I've been counting down all week. Today is the last Friday of ever having the option to eat whatever I want. I am getting so excited I can barely stand it.

Good luck with your liquid diet. I started eating as if I had surgery, bigger portion than with sleeve of course. I gave up sweets, bread, pastas, and basically any bad carbs. I've been on a low carb diet. Not really counting Calories. I didn't want to go cold turkey giving things up the week if liquid diet. lol enjoy your last few naughty food. I'm happy for you. Soon I'll be starting mine. Can't wait.

Yay!!! Congratulations! Waiting until next week to find out your date stinks, but at least you know that you'll find out soon. Enjoy your last days of eating freely. :71_smiling_imp:

That's good to know thanks. Maybe I'll call them on Monday.

I know the feeling. I can't wait to just be able to go back out to play with the kids. I was in the Army and I just want to go back to my old self and show them momma used to be a soldier and she's now back to her old self.
Running through a corn maze sounds like fun!



Me also

      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.
