All I know is now that I am on full liquids, that gnawing feeling is gone, thank goodness.

That's great!

Yeah, I really don't get it. Yesterday I had Tomato Soup I had gotten from my band doctor. I was so full after that I could not even drink Water until about 4 pm. I felt like I

had eaten a turkey dinner and went back for 2nds. I really don't get it. The Tomato Soup was not thick. It's just about the same consistency as all the Protein Drinks I have been drinking, and has the same amount of Protein grams. I finally got to feel like what a sleeve is supposed to feel like.

VegasAngel, I apologize for not calling. I was really running around like a crazy woman as hubby was coming home for the weekend, plus trying to get my loose ends tied up as we leave early Tuesday morning.

Butterflies in the tummy now.

I totally understand. I'm envious you get to leave on Tuesday and I have another 17 days before heading out of Vegas ... give me a call when you get home, when you feel up to it, and you can fill me in on how the surgery went, etc. I know everything will go great and we'll be two more hotties in LV before we know it!!!

God's speed! Just tell your hubby not to drive faster than your Guardian Angels can fly :sad::lol:

I am so glad we are going to be going through this around the same time. . I'm at 10 days and counting.

I wanted to let you know that I'll be contacting you know who, after surgery. I can't get all wrapped up in extra stuff right now. But, did want to keep you updated! ! !

I'm so excited for both of us. . .

I'M THRILLED AND EXCITED (FOR BOTH OF US, RUTHI, AND WHOEVER ELSE IS LOOKING AT SURGERY) ... It will be fun to compare notes ... and it's great to have the knowledge and experience of WASa, Mac, Susan, Elizabethsew and OregonDaisy too .. best of both worlds ...

Just be sure you don't wait too long to contact you know who -- however, I totally understand not being able to put bore on your plate right now; just be sure it's on the menu!

Take care and keep in touch!

      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.
