My date has been set for April 8, 2009...Dr. Joseph Moran in Raleigh, NC...I'm very nervous but also extremely excited...have lost 15 lbs on my own by eating minimal carbs the last several weeks and walking 2 miles every morning...wanted to make sure liver is appropriate size for surgery and to get a "Running Start" into my new life !!!

My surgery date is April 7th. So I guess I'm going to be a Bunny Bandster. Had my pre op with doc today I gave the office staff a thrill. My first weigh in was 306 today 276. I guess there are some who binge before surgery so they were happy to see I've already made some changes.

I've got to read literature the doc gave me and summarize it so he knows I know what I'm in for.

On the way home hubby was asking where should we go on vacation next year--I could buy one coach seat. Any ideas?

      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.
