Yep! I felt like I was drowning from hunger and very irritable. It's cold comfort to read this now, but it'll pass. Good luck!

Hi ashethjac3 my surgery is Monday at 7:00 am I know how you feel! It's almost like being pregnant for 9 months and when your due date comes you are all nerves! Excited to have the baby's but don't want to go through the pain of the process! Lol but we have to keep the faith and pray that everything will be fine!

I'm on day 11 of 14 and I am short tempered, constipated, tired, and hungry! The 22nd can't get here fast enough.

You can do this u was the same way I cried about everything and thought I was going crazy, even had martial issues and had a huge fight with my husband over nothing. Ugh made me crazy! You can do it and it is worth it!! At least after surgery you won't really be hungry and for some reason your not so crazy and emotional over everything.

      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.
