Recommended Posts

I now know that excited feeling everyone expresses when you get the call.

I got my date: Thursday Oct. 29th.

Strange thing, I do not have to do any fast or liquid diet before, I was expecting to and preparing myself for this.

Nurse did say i would be in for 2 days and go home saturday morning.

So, finally... I am on my way YIPEEE... :mad:

Congrats!!! You must be so excited!!!

Re: the liquid diet, it just depends on the surgeon. I have heard so many people having to do it for extended periods of time, but mine only has you do it the day before. Guess we are the lucky ones I guess :-)!

Lots of luck to 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.
