Hello there I'm counting down the days. This has been a long time coming.

I made a date with surgeon a few months ago and I have 6 weeks to go :)

Decided to start my own preop diet already and I've managed to lose 30lbs in about 16 days!

I'm feeling confident and happy to finally get this show on the road.

will be seeing surgeon in 10 days for a check up and to confirm everything is going ahead as planned!

it's getting very real now only 6 weeks left until I'm under the knife :D

I'm happy for everyone who posts to give me the inspiration to keep going everyday and praying for my long term success!!

Just wanted to share my latest feelings and update.

Thanks again for your support!!

      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.
