I am trying to stay strong guys but this is becoming very difficult. I am not craving bad foods but healthy foods like a salad or some fish. My diet is basically all liquids so i want FOOD.

Thank you for the support. It was getting easy but then i just wanted a peice of chicken, i stopped eating fried foods back in 2006. I just want.something to chew on lol. I am also a full time student so plenty of reading *Philosophy and *Cultural Anthropology i just want chicken or fish and i didnt do a food funeral because i know I will be.able to eat my foods again but i am starting to wish I did.

4 days in my 14 day pre-op diet I started a day early so technically 15 day pre-op diet.

I am a single mother of three 8 (diabetic) 5 and 4 yr olds. So I am the one who prepares their food and I am 4 days into my pre-op diet and it is becoming extremely hard to maintain this liquid diet. I am on a very strict diet 4 Protein shakes and SF Jello and ice pops. So me and the kids came to their great grandmother house, I thought it would be easier for me because I would not have to prepare their meals but in fact it is still hard because everyone is eating and I think their great grandmother is fixing all of my favorites to stir me away from the surgery... ughh I need help because I feel like I am going to eat something uggh I want some grilled chicken or baked fish.

Thank you guys so much, i had the.endoscopy done back in august and some other blood work done also in august but i wanted to know what else was there and i am seeing an EKG in my future not really concerned had one of those before...

Hello I go in for my pre-op testing on Wednesday, the same day I start my pre-op diet, I wanted to know what types of testing were done at your pre-op test, I do know and fully understand that each Dr. does different tests but I wanted to see how many of the same test were done. I am kind of nervous and silently going crazy.

Yes, we should

I too am having the sleeve on Feb 5 and I am an outpatient. Good luck hope all goes well

Congrats and keep us updated.

I too have medicaid, my papers were submitted of Jan 6 and I received a call Jan 9 that I was approved for the sleeve my surgery is scheduled for Feb 5 2014, Keep us updated and Good Luck

Keep us updated as soon as you feel upto it.

Hello My surgery is February 5th and i start my liquids the day after you do.

Yeah this is why I am preparing now for this, it is going ok I just have not put in the 3 Snacks, so tomorrow I will try and get in 4 shakes and 3 snacks and 4 bottles of water. I will not let my bad habits stop me from getting my surgery.

Thank you snack such as SF jello, pudding etc. IDK maybe I am putting to much thought in it. I have to train my body in eating through out the day not just 1 meal a day and drinking my carbs

1200 calories and 100gr protein and 125gr of carbs is what they want me to have, I just think it was a little much because I am not use to consuming so much in a day.

and Protein shake and greek yogurt for BK and pretty much the same for lunch and dinner and yes SF jello, pudding etc.. but my issue is I don't eat 3 meals a day I am a meal skipper and I am just barely getting liquids (water) in 4 to 5 bottles seems like too much and I am full time mother and student. I can barely remember to do my homework let alone be eating all day. IDK I have a week to practice til my pre-op liquid diet.

I gained weight and was approved. After the 3rd month I gained weight, the first two months a total loss of 7 lbs. Do not give up I will tell you what I told myself "Let Go and Let GOD"
