Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! It does seem more real or more official that I now that I have a time for surgery. A friend said she was glad that I had the first time slot of the day b/c the doctor should be more refreshed for the procedure. I am also all stocked up on the GasX and everything else I need. Today, Saturday, is the last day I can eat veggies and have Protein Shakes. Sunday I'm only allowed Clear Liquids.< /p>

MIGMOM, my wife, is doing well. She did not get her time for surgery yet. She was told they will call her on Monday with her time for Tuesday. We got a call the other day saying I could push my surgery back a day so both of us could get banded the same day, but my wife wanted me keep the original schedule and go ahead of her. We are both excited. It's hard to believe it's all happening so soon.

      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.
