Good luck tomorrow! I had surgery on Wed. The first 36 hours post-op were pretty rough, so be prepared. The gas pain and port incision hurt me most. I know you'll be glad you did it though. I finally am.

You will be fine!!! The eating plan is a lot easier after surgery. Try to sign up for a food tracking website like thedailyplate.com. It really helps!!! Good Luck

Congratulations on your surgery tomorrow. I will be thinking of you. I found the night before to be really easy, but I was nervous once I got to the surgery center. The gas pain and port incision were pretty rough and it took me longer to feel better (almost the 1st week). But, I am a redhead and I always take longer to heal :unsure:. I also had to have extra medicine for nausea BEFORE the surgery because I always get really sick coming out of anestesia. Best of luck and keep us all posted.

      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.
