8/12 crew-how's your pre-op diet going? I'm pleased to find that each day my hunger is lessening. I've dropped my calorie count on MFP down from 1350/day to 1100 day. Hoping that slowly cutting down before hand (plus eating much healthier in general) will be good prep for the post op period. I'm not looking forward to Sunday though, day before surgery and I'm on Clear Liquids only.

8/2/19 here.. .. the first 2 days were the most painful due to gas pain.. not at the insicion site or even my new sleeve.. re gas moving from side to side was the worst.. that being said once you burp it all or fartvit all it's been a good 6 days..
3rd day out we shopped Costco
4th days out we shopped at sams club and 5th day out I took my brother in law to the shooting range.. just make sure you hydrate

Hello everyone,

I got my surgery date last week and was beyond thrilled. Fast forward to this week, and my excitement has turned into a lot of fear. My surgery date is scheduled for August 30th, and I'm really nervous and scared, and doubting my decision. I just need to hear your guys' experiences, and to know that the recovery is not all that bad. I'm going to go through with it, I'm just so anxious and scared right now. Plus, the idea of having a 3 ounce stomach just freaks me out. How are you all doing?

      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.
