November 13th for DS...anxious not worried...ready to do this...started the process with another surgeon last year but my insurance changed the first of the year and I had to switch surgeons and go through the whole process all over.

That’s a bummer! It’s such a long process! Can I ask why you chose the DS?

Max weight loss as well as best health benefits long term...it was the surgery I was looking at before I spoke to either of the surgeons and was the surgery both suggested.

I was just curious as it isn’t presented as an option here. It’s great that you have a date after going through it twice.

Overall, it hasn’t been as hard as I expected it to be.

That's good to hear! I like Water too. Hopefully that will go away- especially considering how much of it we have to drink! I'm up to bat tomorrow!

Hi everyone! I am scheduled for my sleeve gastrectomy on Nov.11th. I was told I only need to do 3 days of pre-op clears diet. So I was relieved I don't have to do it as long. I've got like Bone Broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free flavors to add to Water. Any ideas for other things to drink?1018201352a.jpg

Doing pretty good- thanks for asking! Rough afternoon on the 4th but woke up at 4am on the 5th feeling a lot better. Still really sore but that's to be expected. Most difficult? No Water until Thursday afternoon!!! So, so happy the surgery is in the rear view mirror!!

      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.
