Ok, I know it's stupid, but I have never been very superstitious, but when I got my date, I was so excited. But I just realized this past week that it's Friday the 13th. My husband is getting his surgery this friday on the 6th and he's happy as heck. But I can't help but think that I need to change my date. I know that will probably push back the surgery maybe even a month. Give me some advice, should I change my date, or just push through this feeling that I am having. :lol::confused2: My husband says for me to do whatever I want, but he won't even change dates with me, which is making me worry more.

What do you think?:thumbup:

DOnt worry about it. Friday the 13th is nothing more than a superstition. Focus on why you are doing this and nothing else. I know I will since my surgery date is the 13th also! Good luck!!

My date is also the 13th....I am not worried, it all started when the templars got killed on that date all over Europe...maybe knowing the origins will help!

I think it will be fine!

Congrats June Bandsters! I'm so excited to be joining the ranks this month (19th). I'm also looking forward to sharing the journey together. It's helped so much to read what others are going through and to get tips and suggestions, but most of all ENCOURAGEMENT!

Personally, I think superstitions only have the power you give them. To me it's just another date and therefore it has no power over me. Hey, I had my first date with my husband on a Friday the 13th, 34 years ago. I always call it my lucky day!

Thirteen is a baker's dozen -- just one more of a good thing.

I am just realizing how much food means to me. I can't wait to eat to live instead of living to eat! Agree?

I'm pretty lucky because, as far as I know, I don't have a pre-op liquid diet. I just have to eat the regular pre-op diet...1200 calories, Protein, vegetables, etc. Kaiser required that I lose so many pounds to see the surgeon, which I did, then gave me the surgery date. So as long as I continue to lose, I'm ok.

I hope this goes right. This is my first post. I will be banded on Friday June 13th. Scary, I know. I'm not too superstitious though. I think everything will be fine. I'm starting to get really nervous. I've had enough time to be excited, now it's just the nerves, lol. Anyway, if anyone has any advice on how to relax a little it would certainly be appreciated. :lol:

      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.
