Banding on Saturday starting to feel nervous ok really nervous



Recommended Posts

I've been a bit rushed through the whole process like go in to the surgery center and got some tests done then they call me up on Tuesday and want to do my surgery on Saturday... Soo I get all stressed trying to get the funds together then having to ask my mother in law to co sign on a loan was the most akward nightmare ever.. Now trying to clean house get ready buy everything I need and chill a bit has not been easy! My best friend trying to talk me out of it but my husband is super supportive while my real family mom etc know nothing of my plans so it's like trying to hide some elephant under the rug even.. Oh well it will be done! I'm excited and scared..

that's not very supportive of him he could have at least ate it at Carl's Jr or some where away from you...My husband has been very supportive and doesnt bring food like that home so i wont be tempted to cheat if he does go to CJ's he gets me a low carb burger at least he he.

      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.
