I am getting sleeved on March 29th. I am feeling nervous because there was such a quick turnaround. I started Feb. 16th and because I have Carefirst they had less strict guidelines. I had to complete three nutrition appointment, have documentation of attempted diets, and a psych eval. They originally wanted to do it on 3/22 but my dad was out of town and he didn't want to miss it. How are you all dealing with the nerves?

Well for me the 6 month waiting period initially seemed like it would take forever, but now being a few weeks away, seems as if its dragging. Im getting sleeved on 3/31 and Im just trying to keep busy and pray these next 16 days and some odd hours fly by, lol :)

      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.
