UPDATE!!!!!!

I got a call on December 26th around noon from my surgeon "WHERE ARE YOU" he didn't require the EXTRA blood work that my general doctor did. He said if I could get to the hospital in 30 min my surgery was still on!!! I got there in 21 min! I had a feeling the whole time so I stayed on my pre-op diet and didn't eat anything on the 26th, it was fate! There was a plus to thinking my surgery was postponed, I had a wonderful night of sleep the night before! Now I am 5 days post-op and I am feeling great! I am totally off of pain meds and I'm going back to work after the New Year! Yay for 2009!!!!!

Hope everyone else is doing well!!!!! thumbsup8de.gif

      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.
