Baylorjai,

I know what you mean about the "No food left behind!" I gotta stop it...there's nothing that says I have to try everything I can get my hands on before surgery! LOL

Good luck to you!

My mistake - Dr. Carlos *Galvani* @ Day One. Also, got a great endorsement on him from another trusted physician here in Chicago today. :)

Good Luck and congrats! Mine is June 1 in Danville, PA. It was a long 6.5 month qualification process, but can't wait for my date. Not looking forward to two week liquid diet. My daughter's doctor only required 3 days. Oh, well, gotta do what ya gotta do.

We'll all be on the loser's bench soon.

June 18 here with Dr. Kirshenbaum in Denver. I guess it's real... I told my fire chief today that I was doing it. He is/was very supportive (I'm a volunteer EMT and my a$$ has gotten too big for my jumpsuit let along being able to effectively care for patients).

My psych told us in group the other day that by now - about a month before surgery - we should stop the "last suppers" BECAUSE after surgery, when we are finally eating solids we can eat "almost" everything IN MODERATION! It is funny, as soon as I accepted this fact the "last suppers" ended. :grouphug:

      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.
