Well fellow June Sleevers I had mine on June 1 around 10:30AM. I was released from the hospital around 5:30PM and have been recovering pretty well. I expected much worse pain, but it has been tolerable. I am looking very forward to the pureed food portion of the diet, but so far it has been manageable. Stay strong folks any your future is bright.

My surgery is June 13th and my preop appt is Wednesday. I think I am going to do either a blog or a vlog on my journey through this whole thing. My wife who I will encourage to join here as well is having hers done June 27th.

I don't have a date yet because I'm waiting for my insurance to approve. Hope everyone's surgery went well.

So today is my first day on the liquid diet and I am sooooo stressed out. I'm scheduled for 6/19 to have my band removed and get a gs.

I'm struggling with this pre-op diet, as well. Sending positive energy your way. We can do this!

I'm looking forward to hearing progress on those that just had it done.

liquid diet day 5 going strong, too strong to work out though. Thinking of doing Tae bo or Leslie sansone (Don't if I spelt the name correctly) home DVD workouts until surgery day.

Not at all, just head hunger, mostly and slight headache on day 2. Although I have been on a somewhat low carb diet for a while now, prior to starting the preop.

      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.
