I hope everything goes ok tomorrow, I'd be excited, anxious and driving everyone nuts lol I have a couple more months yet (thanks hubby) but I know everyone has our backs and we are rooting for you. Hopefully no gas pains and lots of Water n walking. Take care and let us know how you did =)


Thank you so much! I’m more anxious to get it over with than anything. More nervous about being naked on a table than them cutting into me 😂😂😂. I will definitely try to keep everyone posted as soon as I am able! And you definitely have support when your time comes. This is the best and most supportive group ever (I’m probably biased because of all of the awesome people here)!

@auroragirl4489 I believe 15 business days - so that would be 3 weeks. But again - they said the range was 3-15 and I heard after 7 (business days).

My last day of the pre-op diet and the eve of my surgery! I’ve been doing pretty good today. Less dizzy spells, Headache is gone, I was able to prepare my mom’s lunch without feeling nauseous from the smell of the food, AND I’ve finally stopped being sad about the chewing thing, progress! lol. To everyone on their pre-op diet, stay strong! To everyone with dates coming up, I’m wishing you a speedy recovery. To everyone who has had their surgeries already this week, also wishing you speedy recovery. We’ve all got this! 😉
You go rock this!!! Wishing you a speedy recovering. Love your rebirthing count down. Talk to you on the post op side :)

I will be sure not to, lol. And I’d be freaked out either way with the shots. I wouldn’t need them if I didn’t have the implant birth control 😕

      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.
