Stay strong! The anxiety and excitement get very real. I wish I had done it sooner as well but I’ve made the decision to do it and it happens this week! Your date will be here before you know it, the time truly does fly

I did the food funeral and it wasn’t as intense as I thought it would be. Had pizza, Pasta, seafood. That was about it. Oh and a burger. The only things in my food funeral that truly satisfied were the seafood and the pizza. Best wishes! Hope you get your date very soon!

I had so many food funerals! Part of the reason I gained 10 pound rather than lost 10

Well, pre registration and visit with anesthesiologist are checked off. I'm on my 8th day of pre op diet, which is going well. It's getting real. One more week!!!

      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.
