Good luck with everything. Hope you have a speedy recovery [emoji1317]
Me too !! I really have very small support network. I live in Oklahoma with my 2 daughters (16 yrs & 12 yrs old), my mother 76, who moved from New England to live with me. She could not afford to keep up the childhood home. So she sold it and moved in with me. My son moved to Colorado 2 weeks ago for his second year of college and has his 1st apartment. My husband lives and works in North Carolina. He retired from the military the beginning of my son's senior year in high school. He had changed schools 11 times. So I stayed. And now the girls want to stay here. All my military friends moved back home or moved to different military bases. Argh ... sorry I tend to ramble on when I'm nervous and I can't eat.

No need to apologize I completely understand. I can be your long distance support. I live in NYC. Whenever you need to reach out feel free to do so. We need as much support as we can going through this..

I have to do the preop diet for 10 days. 2 shakes a day and weight watchers dinner. I can also have up to 1 cup of celery & carrots🙄

I have to go for 2 weeks, with the last day being only liquids. I knew this was gonna be hard, so I decided to start early, and pare it down as I go. Right now I am at 3 Protein Shakes, an Atkin's Lasagna or pizza (the only 2 I think taste pretty good!) for dinner, with carrots, celery and and dill pickles - not all at once! LOL Just in between when my brain is telling me I am STARVING! :P I started that on Sunday, so... 3 days in and it is getting a bit easier to not focus on my foolish brain! And lots & lots of water! I ordered some of the Soups from here, so I will have them that liquid day.

I commend you for starting early. Not me I wont be starting a day earlier then I have to. Lol. I had my final appointment today and my surgeon told me the longer you do it the better it is. He suggested I do a full 2 weeks if I can 🤪

      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.
