Okay I am freaking out, with anxiety and excitement. My surgery is 2nd April at 9.15am. New Zealand is the first country to see the sun, so I will actually be having my op sometime during the day on the 1st of April for you guys in America!! Hence why I am freaking out a bit!!:P

Have half packed my bag, have talked to as many people as possible about anesthetic, have made lists, changed my bedsheets, tidied up, stocked up the fridge with liquids. :biggrin:

Weigh in tomorrow - am 7kg down as at today's weigh in 130.4 but let's see what the scales say with the doc!!! :thumbup:

Hey, Lingling, congrats on your 7kg wt loss!!! You made me laugh when you mentioned changing your bedsheets because that was one of the last things I did pre-op, too. You will do fine and get back on here post op and tell us all about it.

Just remember to keep breathing. I admit it, I am 28 years old and WILL be taking a stuffed bunny to my surgery to keep me calm (well, as calm as possible). I suggest you take something you can focus your energies on like an ipod with your favorite music.

      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.
