Thanks Amanda! Glad to make a buddy in the same shoes. I do a home meal delivery subscription service for our family weeknight dinners to make life less chaotic and just picked the menu for the 14th. For me it was butternut squash & pumpkin Soup - annnd that was the moment it got really real! :blink: So many emotions.

You have a great day too!!

That actually sounds delicious, I might have to look that one up! I have a pumpkin & a butternut squash [emoji177]. I will still be cooking for my hubby & kids during pre-op and after surgery, which doesn’t sound good considering I won’t be able to eat any of it. I told hubby that I am taking Thanksgiving off since I can’t lift the turkey. I plan to prep most of the sides if possible before I leave for the hospital, that way we can just heat/eat...or in my case heat and drink lol.


Have a great day!

I'm right there with you still having to feed a family - I think I've tried most of the services but I'm currently using Gobble. It makes meal prep easier in general but I'm hoping it helps the pre/post op transition - so the fam will have the meals and I'll have the Soups (with added Protein powder). Amanda, I love the thanksgiving idea and that you're a planner too! I may just have to copy you. Looks like we're going to be great support to one another :) Talk soon!

Hello my Peeps

I was just notified by my Dr. that since my BMI is 39 I do not need to do a 2-week liquid diet. I can do one week only and have my surgery on the 1st of November instead. I agreed, of course. Now am freaking out!!!!!!

      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.
