Well guys and girls, it is 10pm on Monday night in Australia which means there are only 10 hours left until I need to be at the hospital to be prep'd for surgery.

I have a feeling it is going to be a long, restless night but I shall try hard to get some rest... the future begins tomorrow.

I am not sure if I can access LBT from my mobile, so until I return, thank you for your support this far... I look forward to sharing the rest of the journey with you all.

I must say that I am crapping my pants, however, they say that you never know how strong you can be until you have no other choice... I've got this, lets do it!

When you are on the other side of the surgery you'll see that it wasn't as bad as you thought it might be. Can't wait to hear how you do. Glad to know that you have your parents there to support you!

      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.
