I am excited too...and still nervous about the IV (no veins) and anesthesia. Thursday is my day and I am shocked now at how quickly it rolled around. I am thrilled to have you all here. I am so glad we have our Jazzy June Group! I too will write a note when I get back home. God Bless all of us! Our moment has come!

I too am excited and happy. Not nervous..just yet, and because of the way Kaiser does their program, feel as though I've already started this program in January...this tool is one more step to my success and it's a great feeling to be on the right track. Good Luck My Jazzy June Friends. It's nice to know I've got somewhere to turn when I need advice.

Cathy,

I start 2 days of Clear liquids tomorrow in prep for surgery. Just had to eat high Protein before that and watch my portions. I'm dreading that and then after surgery it's another 5 to 7 days of liquids. Good luck to you!! We can do this!! Here's to a sweet recovery weekend!!

      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.
