This seems to be happening a lot anymore on Bariatric Pal. Did you come to this decision indepently, did you decide it together or did a doctor bring it up first?

We decided that we both were going to have the surgery, but we didn’t decide to do it together until I came across another couple that had done it on the same day. When we asked our surgeon he was completely fine with it

Well I about half way through my Dietary Purgatory, I do hope this makes a difference in my livrr,like it's supposed to. I am supposed to be on 1000 calories, some days I go over to 1150, some days 850-900,hope it is still ok. Think it is because some shakes are 100, some are 160 and there is one 180 but the carbs and fats are,lower, go figure.
Today the shakes taste ungodly sweet, maybe dilute them half strength? You would think my rhythm would be perfect,but I'm humans sometimes I'm busy,and don't space perfect. Well we'll see what happens next.

      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.
