I am on day 4 of the pre-op diet and I too am having issues with headaches. It should get better. I am allowed a low carb meal every day for the first 2 weeks then Protein Drink only the last 2 weeks. Just need to hold tight and go with the flow I guess

I think I'm going to switch from coffee to black tea for a few days, then green tea, then herbal tea over the course of my liquid diet. That way it's both a mental and chemical switch. The hardest part for me will be avoiding my beloved Starbucks espresso drinks!!!! *cries*

Hesitate to say. They called this morning for Feb. 13th, but honestly, after being told April, I accepted a project and now it conflicts. I "think" it will be Feb. 20. But will know more later. Just so, sooooo surprised the insurance company already approved and there was no 10-infinity days anxiety-ridden approval time I had to sweat out! :D

Hello, I am not a bypass person yet but Ive had the sleeve. I'm currently having issues with it and the doctor said if my stomach doesn't heal the right way or if it has created an "L" shave versus a "C" shape I will have to get the bypass. I'm nervous. If I do have the bypass it will be the end of this month. I'm super nervous!

      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.
