Hi all October Bandsters,

So, I am one day out and feel great. Took 2 tsp. of lortab elixer and slept all night no problem. Just tylenol today till about 2:30 this afternoon and then had 1 tsp of the lortab.

Sipping on Water all day, Got a green tea from starbucks this afternoon. And I have had a little more than half of a Jello cup.

I am not hungry at all.:thumbup:

Feel really good and looking forward to the mush phase to get more flavor.

dinner tonight will be broth made from beef Better Than Bullion. It has so much more flavor than any of the already made beef or chicken stock i bought.

Congrats to all who just got their band dates. I'll start posting pics soon to show my progress.

Did you walk around right after your surgery?

I hear that really helps with the pain...

Good Luck! I go in tomorrow at 10am!

I hope I can sleep.

      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.
