Need a bud****



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I'm 27 and have 3 boys...10, 5 and 2 and have been married for 10 years... yeah do all that math! Anyway it's really hard to find people my age with my "family" status and still have similiar intrest etc. I feel like I've grown up really quick so I feel kinda out of place in the 20 something area...but the 30s is getting to close to the hill....if ya get me! My husband turns 30 this year so I'll just nag on him. If you want to be a buddy during this process please send me an email. I'm going thru the pre-approval stages right now with my insurance. I'm hoping really bad I will have an early Christmas present with news my insurance will pay..then I'm scheduling the surgery as soon as I can!

I will not be having the lap-band because of Dr/Insurance/Qualification issues..so I will be on my own again!! Good luck to you and your surgery!!! Wish you the best.

      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.
