Yay!! I'm so excited too .. but I'm only nervous that COVID will delay it again. I NEED to get this surgery done and over with so I can get on with my life! What about it makes you the most nervous?


I am nervous about covid delaying and also in previous surgery I normally get sick after being put under. I am hoping I don’t throw up this time. Also I am so excited to start my new life however it’s so hard for me to imagine myself skinny. I can’t see but I am excited to see it because it will happen.

Ask for the nausea patch! There's soooooo much they can do to prevent nausea and throwing up after surgery

I was January 18 but was postponed due to covid patients in the hospitals. My new date is March 3rd. I will start my pre op diet on Feb 16th. I'm glad it starts after the superbowl and after valentine's day. I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel (again). Hopefully I won't be postponed again! Good Luck everyone!

My surgery is scheduled for March 17th. I'm getting the sleeve done. I'm starting a liver shrinking diet tomorrow and doing Protein Shakes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Fairlife Protein Shakes are the best tasking Protein shakes ever. 30g protein only 150 calories. Good luck.

Hi, my Gastric Bypass date is 3/7. Had to be changed from sleeve due to results of EGD with Bravo showing extreme GERD. I’m excited and scared, thinking about the gas pain everyone describes as horrible.

      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.
