Helpful Spanish Translations...



Recommended Posts

Hi all. Another bandster mentioned to me today that I should bone up on some basic Spanish that I might find helpful for my trip to TJ. Thought this might be helpful to share with others who might not have gotten an A+ in Spanish 101 (I sure didn't)...hehe :) -- angie

Diga! Coma estan ustedes? Yo hablo espanol!

Okay! Anyways, some of these translations are correct, but some are not. I can help. Heres my post:

Soy muy cansado= (if female) Estoy muy cansada

Llame por favor a doctor= Puede usted produce el doctor por favor

¿Cuándo está por favor?= Pardonme, pero a que hora es?

¿Cómo es usted?= Como esta usted?

No me estoy sintiendo bien= No sinterme bien

Gracias por su ayuda= Gracias para su ayuda

Me siento nauseabundo.= sinterme nauseas

Me siento mareado.= sinterme marea (if female)

If you have any more questions you can e-mail me at Jodie_Warner06@hotmail.com.

Most of the translations were close, but not quite correct. There are just some rules that makes the words me different words if not used well, and you could end up confusing yourself and the doctor. Sorry about no accents, but you all will get the picture. Goodluck!!

Jodie,

You are right... I did my best with my half-ass high school Spanish. Worked for me on my trip, so it's all good now. Best of luck to all...

      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.
