I feel the same way! I finally all set to go for Aug 24. They wanted to schedule me in April but because of work I had to push it back. Now I am getting a little anxious.

I know just how you feel. My surgery was 7/5/17 and the closer it got I started second guessing myself, wondering if I should go through with it and supposed things didn't go right. I could barely sleep and I had the uncontrollable urge to just pig out and eat everything (which I managed to resist but not without a difficult struggle). Good luck with your surgery. Oh by the way, I had the sleeve.

That's how I am right now! I'm up all night thinking about it but I know it's in gods hands and we will all be okay! How were you feeling right after surgery?

My surgery is scheduled for 8/18/17 and I'm sooo nervous and excited at the same time! Has any one else had a bit of anxiety just thinking about it?! It's like I'm physically prepared but mentally have a bunch of mixed emotions![emoji30]


I am scheduled for 8/16. I need to lose about 200 pounds I have been carrying around for ten years. I am 63 with a host of medical problems. I started the liquid diet today as surgery is two weeks from now. Like you I am nervous. Considering my age, weight, mobility and alternatives, it calms me down. I am focusing on my desired outcomes and where I will hopefully be 18 months from now! Good luck to you!

      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.
