Hi everyone! I'm in the process of getting approval and on my last step. Today is my endoscopy and then I'm finished. My doctor is scheduling at the end of April, beginning of May right so fingers crossed that all goes well and I get one of those dates. This has been such a long road so far. I went to my seminar in October and didn't get to have my first consultation until the end of December. I'm just so ready for the day to get here. I'm going to start vlogging my experience soon.

Stats
Height: 5'6"

Hi everyone :) I'm 25, American living in Turkey. I have my sleeve surgery date set for April 9th here in Istanbul (less than a month away!) and i definitely want to connect with people on here because my location makes finding support a little difficult.

I just had my final visit on March 8. Submitted to insurance and waiting for the approval. Then we schedule the surgery. I'm nervous and excited.

      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.
