So Sunday was my last day of actual food. I had a little homemade lasagna and a slice of cake (thanks grandma who totally doesn’t know I’m having surgery or she’d be judging me). And I ended the day with a homemade cheeseburger on low cal low carb bread. Ready to start my liquid diet! In the homestretch now. Final pre-op appointment with the Anesthesiologist on the 20th and then surgery next week!

If you do work hard and follow the steps, you will be successful! Think positive, keep your eye on the prize, and do it one day at a time.

I know, I think that fear moreover comes from my years of eating right and exercising for HOURS a day just to lose a little weight and then have it pile back on (and then some) no matter how hard I worked at it. I do need to be more positive and trust my surgeon who suggested bypass/rny for this very reason. Anyway, I should know it will work. I was mostly on the liquid diet for the past few days (only eating one meal and replacing 2 with shakes, except for last night) and I lost like 11 lbs already. Thanks for the positivity. Sometime we need the sense knocked back into us right?

Good luck this weeks ladies, but your not going to need it, you will all do great =) Me on the other hand has to face a Dr that will prob change my requirements as I will have to change my July date to August or Sept today (hubbys and Immigrations fault) I've done all the required tests bar the blood work and they still add on Frontiera (heart and breathing test, when its all been done by Cardio and Pulmonary Drs). I hope to be part of this group if I cancel the Dr and go with another if this all happens. To tired to carry it all on.

      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.
