So, I have to be at the hospital at 8:15 tomorrow morning. Is it really here? Am I really about to go through this? I still feel like this is some dream. Like I'll wake up at any minute and surgery will still be a month away.

I can't say I'm scared or even nervous. I have a very good work relationship with everyone who is going to be taking care of me tomorrow. And I can truly say that I trust them with my life. I know that I am so excited. :frown: And I know that I can't wait to start seeing my progress.

So, wish me luck and at about 9:30 tomorrow morning think of me while in surgery... I'll let you all know how it's going as soon as I can...:smile:

      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.
