Day 3. Had a roughish morning. Had a sudden bang of nausea and awful gas. Just wanted to burp all the time. It was very painful but luckily a few meds sorted me and I slept awhile. Had my first shower. Was heaven!! Drunk cubitan now. Nice to have something a bit thicker than Water and more flavour. Looking forward to going home tomorrow

I’m scheduled January 16th, can’t wait!




Dr didn't require one I guess. I was told to do the Protein based part. And stay away from food we can no longer have. I'm doing the Rny 1/17/18. Almost time. [emoji27]

Me too. Am going into hospital tomorrow afternoon. Operation on Tuesday morning 16th. They will repair my hiatial hernia as well as do a vsg. And told me that since I've got sleep apnea, they might put me under observation in the intensive care for the night... I hope it won't be necessary. Am super nervous though I know it's the best decision I've made to do the vsg. Here's to us all! Xx

Anyone able to get all their Protein in? I am barely able to eat more than a few spoonfuls of my puréed protein at every meal.

Why aren't you able to get all Protein in? Too full? Nauseous? I will be starting soft foods this coming week.

      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.
