Alright @alex76 you’re up! You are the last one of us this week! Apparently all our surgeons like the beginning of the week!

How are all all you guys from Monday & Tuesday doing?

Hello! Leaving for the hospital in about 6 hours. I'm mostly excited, but a little anxious too.
I'm pretty sure that most surgeons wanted the long holiday weekend off too! LOL

Beginning day 6 of my pre op liquid meals, no longer suffering from hunger pains. Never really paid attention to how many food commercials there are! Have to keep switching channels to avoid them! Lol Surgery is July 12th for gastric bypass, so it’s getting close. Reading all the post and encouragement and information is really helpful. Thank you all! Any Delaware folks here? Well enjoy your 4th festivities!!

I'm on day 2 of the liquid diet and so far it's not bad. I really don't have to be around people eating since I work nights and sleep during the day...and I actually lost about 3.5 lbs of Fluid after day 1.

      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.
