My surgery is October 13th in Buffalo NY. It will be 7months and 1 day since I sent in my application. October 13th is Columbus Day so I say I am re discovering myself. What kind of pre op diets does everyone have to be on? I have to be on SB Phase 1 for the week before surgery to shrink my liver.

I'm blanking - what is SB Phase 1? I only have to do liquids 2 days before my surgery. For me, it's been 7 months since I went to the surgeon's seminar. I'm a little skeered but mostly I am excited!!!!!

Oh and Linda - your quote is great!

Bimbabe - remind me to pop you in the head about your continued "Libras rule" comments when we're in the hospital!!!!!!! ;-)

My doctor recommended Vita Band by Advantage Vitamins. Of course they are chewable and come in differnt flavors. The hospital gave me samles and I like the Lemon Creme the best, but everyone body is different. Now I just need to make a list of all the drinks I can have that first week after surgery and go shopping.

Thanks :lol:. Just thought it would be great to have a list. I'm a "praying" person so I wanted to compile one for me anyway. Wishing all of you great success!

I spent the evening with friends at a bonfire. I still can't imagine life "post band". Have you all started thinking about it?

Oh Anne, that is all I think about, life after a life changing surgery! I am excited, nervous but most of all I am ready for a CHANGE. Not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. It has been a tough road, but through struggles come success and through triumphs comes empowerment and I am ready to conquer my biggest fears. This is only the beginning! All of you are in my prayers!

      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.
