    Attitude after surgery?

    trulykendra replied to Rucamama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm having my surgery Aug 25. I'm on my two week liquid diet now. When I was doing everything on my check list I was so excited , but when I went to pre op on 8/8 it all became real. My first day of my liquid diet was very hard. I'm taking it one day at time now and it's getting better. I'm finally starting to feel how did in the begin excited. Good luck to everyone on your journey.

    All the time of doing everything on the check list I haven't really been nervous. But for some reason after my pre op appointments on the 8/8 I got a little nervous. I'm starting my liquid diet tomorrow . I'm still a little nervous , but not to the point of not having my surgery. I've worked to hard to get to this point. I keep reminding myself why I'm having the surgery. I was wondering has this happen to anyone else?

    That's wonderful. I completely understand I feel like this has been a long road to get to the this point . My surgery is Aug 25th.

    No I'm not a diabetic. Just because I didn't have anything because I knew I was having blood work done. Oh ok I understand. What day is your surgery on?
  7. trulykendra
    Oh wow you can have meat. Well every doctor and nut are different . I'm sure those cookies looked and smelled good. Yesterday while I was at my primary care doctor I got light headed, dizzy and I sweating so bad . My sugar had dropped because I hadn't had anything since the night before.
  8. trulykendra
    Oh ok, what all are you able to have your liquid diet? Because my doctor and nut allows me to have grits, plain oatmeal and cream of wheat.i also can have cream soups and that's really been helping me.
  9. trulykendra
    Good morning are you able to take some Tylenol? Also you may want to call your doctor or nut to let them know what's going on with you . Good luck to you on your journey.
  10. trulykendra
    I'm not sure . But please for your safety during your surgery I wouldn't suggest doing it again. Your life it's not worth a couple bites of food. I suggest asking your nut. I'm 5 days in on my liquid diet and I've loss 6 lbs. I know it's a struggle just take every hour of the day as it comes. Good look to you luck to you.

    Since starting my liquid diet on the 11th I've lost 6 lbs. But while I was at my doctor's office I got light head, dizzy and sweating really bad. My doctor said he believes it happened because my sugar dropped. I didn't have anything before going to the doctor because I knew I was having blood work done. After the blood work they gave me some orange juice and I started feeling so much better.

    I'm glad you are doing well. So far I'm doing believe it's because my doctor and nut allow me to have grits, plain oatmeal and cream of wheat . Also low fat cream soups. So that really helps. Best wishes on your surgery tomorrow .

    Here I Go (My Journey Thus Far)

    trulykendra replied to Litecaramel's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    I keep reminding myself why I'm having the surgery. My main reason is because of my health and trying to prolong my life. I've always been good at dieting, but it's keeping it off over along period of time is the problem. I finally got my surgery date Aug 25.
  15. trulykendra
    I hope you are feeling better .How are you doing today and how is your liquid diet going?
  16. trulykendra
    I hope your recovery is going well. I'm starting to feel much better I just started my 3rd day of pre op liquid diet the 1st day was rough , but much better now. I think my nervousness surrounded around not knowing how the protein shakes would taste had never had one before yesterday. It actually was pretty good. So that helped tremendously.
  17. trulykendra
    Hey , the first day was rough. Yesterday was better. I'm able to have grits , plain oatmeal and cream of wheat so I had a little grits this morning with some chicken bone broth so far. How are you doing?

    How are you doing today? Yesterday was really rough for me. I was having mood swings I believe because I was hungry. But today is a little better . I had my first protein shake this morning and it was pretty good to my surprise . I have premier protein shakes Caramell flavor.

    I went through the same situation with food . I was thinking about everything , but mostly what sweets I wanted because even after much better with eating I'm afraid to really anything because I keep thinking about dumping syndrome. I guess you can say I was mourning the loss of sweets.

    trulykendra replied to Deegil's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I will look into trying the premier protein shakes. I'm doing ok so far today just in a little pain because I have lupus and fibromyalgia (hopeful I'm not going into flare up)I was really stressing out about starting this that I didn't really go shopping for anything was procrastinating. But I can't put it off any longer. So I'm heading to Walmart today. How are you doing today?

    I totally agree I just started my 2 week liquid diet today. I was literally freaking out last night wondering how everything was going to be on these next two weeks. Before this I had never had a protein shake and that's was scary part me.
