:thumbup:Hello fellow Christians. I would appreciate your prayers as I head into surgery at 5:30am on Sept. 10, 2008. I pray that the surgery will go fine with no complications, I pray that I will have as little gas pain as possible, and pray that I will recover quickly. To God be the Glory Great things he has done.

Hello, I am now 2 days post op and feeling very good. Prayers were definitely answered regarding my surgery. I experienced basically no pain, and just had a great experience all the way around. Tummy is a little sore on day 2 but nothing to worry about. Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.

I am so glad for your positive experience. Someone was encouraging me just yesterday about prayer before these kinds of endeavours and how it really makes a difference in regards to controlling our fears and helping it go smoothly.

It's also encouraging to hear your positive experience when I go in for mine.

Thanks for sharing!

      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.
