Good luck!!! Congrats on taking this step to becoming a new, healthy, beautiful you! I am also over 60, so I am late to the game, but that's okay - we're adding quality years to our lives and we'll be able to enjoy those grandkids! 😊

Congratulations to all who are having their surgery tomorrow, I wish you all well and to have a speedy recovery.

Unfortunately my surgery was cancelled, due to the antithesis's family member passed away (I think his Dad) and my doctor doesn't want to use any of his back-up's to do it as my surgery is complex (I'm getting my abdominal incision hernia repaired).

Yes, I'm devastated.

Good luck everyone, I'll be thinking of you all 😀

      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.
