So tomorrow is the day and I have to say that I am excited but super nervous at the same time. I was tested over and over in my preop diet even having to bake a cake for work for a co- workers birthday but held strong and have lost 8lbs. Tiday is Clear Liquids only and I am supposed to drink the magnesium citrate now but I am still at work...that would not be pretty considering they only have multiple stall bathrooms.....Anyways. Tomorrow is the day I have been waiting for but just cant shake this nervousness.

Hope everyone has a blessed day!

Hi everybody my doctor did not ask me for any pre op diet - is that ok?

My surgeon doesn't require it, only my insurance. Wait, I meant the 6 mos. Sorry.... Misunderstood.

      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.
