CONGRATULATIONS!!! Isn't this the most exciting day? I was freaking out the day I got my date, it just makes everything seem VERY real. I'm a dork and even made a paper chain that I rip one link off of every day. Only 7 left, WOOHOO!

Keep us posted with the pre-op diet and how you're doing. Have they had you lose any weight up until this point?

I'm gonna check out your blog now. :) Congrats again!

Swish, I love this idea! I'm tempted to make a chain for myself once I get closer to the date. (I have about 100 days before then though. That's a lot of paper!)

Congratulations on getting your date, Chiffani!!!

      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.
