I have surgery at 12. I’m so hungry [emoji30] I just keep thinking about everything I can’t eat anymore. [emoji23] but it is what it is. I miss my old fit self. Good luck to anyone scheduled today also.

Good luck, you'll do great. After surgery you will be surprised and thrilled how little you'll care that you will choose NOT to eat all that old crap.

Your challenge once healed will not be "being able" to eat all that crap again. Your challenge will be "BEING ABLE TO" eat all that crap again and worse, learning how to eat around your surgery.

Surgery is not magic pixiedust. It only operates on your gut, you are responsible for getting your head right and in the game.

You can do this.

Thank you. This is the 3rd time I’ve scheduled. I’m definitely ready now. I freaked out before. I just can’t wait to be healthier.

Good luck! I worried about that too but then you really do not have that hunger feeling after.

Good luck, I hope you wake up not in too much pain. Don't want you to feel like like Ben R ran over you with his motorcycle or that the Penguins used you for a hockey puck. Now get healthy so you can cheer on the Pirates, baseball season is just around the corner. Update us on your surgery and your struggles, cause we'll be waiting. God Bless.

Thank you. I’m home now. Only stayed one day. Surgery went really good. I’m doing really well. A little sore but the pain med helps. On the clear diet and not getting sick at all.

      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.
