Thank you. Its a whole new way of living. Retraining my way of thinking about nourishment. Looking foward to the challenge.

My pre-op was 4 weeks. 2 weeks liquid & 1 meal then 2 more weeks only liquid. It can be difficult but is tolerable. You all got this!

Mine was the same for week one then the second week was 2 shakes, one high Protein meal. I “mostly” did it. Good luck I’m 8 days post op and feeling great 14 pounds lighter.

Good idea! Thank you, I think I will! [emoji175] my surgery is Monday and I cannot wait! I am having my gastric band revised to a sleeve. I just got these adorable pillows in today just in time for my surgery! I’m going to be using them as stomach pillows for when I need to cough or sneeze or laugh.

Those are so cute! You will do great! My surgery was last Wednesday. I weighed 254.2 the day after. Today I weighed myself and I’m down to 242.6! Not bad for one week.

They’re from a person on Etsy. She hand makes them and will personalize them with different faces and whatever you want to put on the back, name, surgery date, etc... and they come in various colors. I love them! [emoji5]

January 22 for me can't wait. Have been going through the process for 6 months. My husband and son are both sick all week hoping I don't catch it before the big day ! Have a little bit of the sniffles


I also went the 22nd. I'm home. Got home Around 4 yesterday. I'm here alone and pretty sore. I'm having trouble with Water and this swirling thing that happens in my abdomen (don't know how to describe it). I'm scared to take the Percocet prescribed for fear of nausea. I'm starting to sip a Protein Shake. I'm on clear liquids 1 week the. Regular liquids for. 4. How are you feeling.
Sorry sounds like a ramble

      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.
