I am also going tomorrow morning for 5:30 check in and 7:00 surge. I can't say that I'm very nervous, after all, what good would that do? My family is coming in tonight for support and errands this weekend. I need to make some major changes in my health maintenance, and this is a big first step. Good luck to you.

omgggggg all I can say is PAIN PAIN n more PAIN! I dont remember anything cuz they gave me this cocktail drug that made me feel real drunk before gettin the anesthia. I remember wakin up n them tellin me that everything was successful. I started crying cuz I was soo thanksful that things went well plus I was in sooo much pain..All I could do is cry I couldnt even speak...All night I was in pain, gas pain...I woke up cryin today lol..I couldnt handle the pain. I got like 3 shots in my stomache, 1 in my arm and 1 in my buttocks. Hurt alot but I needed it...Right now Im home Im gonna go back to bed..I had 2 walk around alot to prevent blood clots. I still have pain but its gettin better...Hopefully tomorrow things will b alright!

:D I am SO happy to hear you are through surgery! Sorry you had a tough time, but it's really encouraging to hear that you are already feeling so much better. (Especially for those of us who are pre-op!) I hope you'll keep us updated on your progress.

      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.
