Two Weeks Post-Op!!!!



Recommended Posts

:update:

We went to Dr Jay's office today for MsJoy's two week post-op visit. Even making her Carnation Instant Breakfast with ice cream, she still managed a 13 pound loss. WooooHoooooo!:wow2: He checked her incisions and they were all doing great! And then the BIG news...he put her on mushies.:) Look out bananas! :) Three weeks till her first fill. Her first BIG meal in three weeks.......garlic mashed potatoes at Chili's.:hungry:

Wow Randy - tell her congrats! I am two weeks behind her and was at the Surgery Center of Richardson yesterday to be banded - were you there, too or at his office? Small world anyway! Ok, so MsJoy is now my role model for my two week milestone! Please let her know I'm happy for her!

Kim, we were at his office. I couldn't believe it! We walked through the door a little after 1:00 pm and the place was packed. I'll let her know that her fan club has officially started.:) Take it easy and use this time to just heal. Don't worry about losing, that will come later. Welcome to the land of the banded!:clap2:

MsJoy here - I just wanted to thank you all for the words of support and praise. One of these days I'm going to register in here and make a few posts of my own. Until then, perhaps between all of us we can make this world a little bit lighter place.:)

      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.
