Oh that's so fantastic! Thanks for letting me know. I'm just getting caught up with the entire forum. I just saw the same date and geek'd. I got it today. I've had a lot of bumps and hiccups in my journey, so I'd really like to just move forward smoothly.

I had different instructions.
The liquid diet for me goes like this:
1-9 days -- Clear Liquids (for the full two weeks up to 50 cal a day), one approved food 80-100 cal (i'm just picking pudding), whey Protein Shakes (they have a list of how many you'll need to drink throughout the day to get the required grams of Protein -- in this case 5 Premier Protein shakes)
10-14 days -- same clear liquids, No approved foods, 2 premier protein and 3 impact protein shakes. you have to get that from the hospital store. There's stuff in it to help you heal after surgery.

Then, my surgeon's nurse sent me an email of other things I need to do like labs, EKG, chest X-ray, see my Doctor to clear me for no infection in my lungs and heart, 3 hour long group class with the surgeon, 1 hour group class with weight management.

I've been slacking on taking my Vitamins ahh don't judge. Anyone think this will be a problem? put off surgery?

You're welcome. Sainthood - you're too kind.
You've written poems for other members.
Here's one for you:

Bari-sisters on the scene
Have you met Little Green?
She's cool,
She's alright,
But mess with kakatlady,
She'll call you really shady
Creekimp has your back
When under attack
From f'ed up professional error
Or Bariatric member terror
Then there's FluffyChix
Let's get her in the mix
She gives a humor fix
Along with gentle (hugs)
But she can be your thug
KatFight has been there too
When doctors' associates have no clue
So, yes, puddycat do what you gotta do
Even if you leave some kitty poo
In the end (hee hee) you'll be great
And eat from a little plate
You'll be really lean
Bari-sisters on the scene

      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.
