I have one appointment left in my pre-op 3 month dr monitored weight loss plan, then hopefully to the surgeon. They said it should be early August!!

Hi all! I am completely new to this and any online forum group. I just finalized my decision to have the surgery and it will be in August. Exact date TBD. I had already completed all the necessary prerequisites for insurance and was still hoping against hope I could lose weight naturally. My body has rejected nearly every natural way to lose weight and I finally decided that surgery was my best option.

I look forward to meeting most or all of you and reading your journeys throughout this process.

Hi everyone, Iโ€™ve completed all of my pre requisites, but still need an approval letter from my PCP! Then hopefully my surgery date!
Iโ€™m getting a little discouraged. I hope this is normal. I just want to go to the next step! Iโ€™m getting sick of dieting and no real results and Iโ€™m starting to want to eat everything!

Hey all - Just thought I'd let you know I'm heading out on vacation bright and early in the morning. A good portion of my trip will be without cell service or wi-fi (woo hoo!). Didn't want you to think I've deserted you all.

Also, since I'll be gone over the 1st, I'll be posting the June Golden Key Awards early and getting them up today. :)

      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.
