HI, I am having mine on April 3rd. I started my preopt diet today. this will be a long week before i have it. I've had many surgeries so that's not new. But many new lifestyle changes will be new and learning how to eat differently . my husbands sister had it 8 weeks ago, and is doing well lost 50 lbs so far . I'm getting out some new clothes i bought to keep me focused of all the new clothes i will be able to wear again! Good luck :)

Hi Flintstones, i just had mine on April3rd just got home tonight. Surgery went well, recovery is in process. I'm glad to be home! Bed was not very comfortable, but yes it's true about the gas pains and nauseous, I'm sipping my watering trying to get some down. I't is like any other surgery with pain and other, but you denfenitly need to go slow on the fluids. So the healing starts. Will posted and good luck to you! i've only taken tylenol so far.

      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.
