Getting a little anxious but so ready to go!

Wow that’s close. Just got my surgery date yesterday . See surgeon the 8th. On 2 shakes a day and 1 meal till then. How long were you required to do all liquid diet? Humana makes me stay overnite. I go to North Vista. I had a friend that had your Dr and she raves about her care. Sounds like your in good hands. Keep me posted. Saw on my orders surgeon uses tap block (shot in abdomen) for pain. Have heard horror stories from some here but my Dr says not the norm. Highly recommended surgery.

From the web site (haven’t found where to do it from mobile app) select the drop down near your name upper right and fill in info for surgery and then create new ticker.

      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.
