Recommended Posts

I couldn't figure out how to add friends and things like that so I figured let's make it east right here!!

Tomorrow is the day, I am oddly calm and sooooo ready. I didn't have to do a preop diet but I have been doing a Protein shake for the last week and a half in place of my Breakfast. Yesterday I ordered my 3lb tub of Isopure Protein and a shaker bottle for mixing on the run. I have my Vitamins andjello, broth and ice pops!

By this time tomorrow, I'll be checking in at the hospital since I have the 7:30 surgery!!!!! I am sooooooo excited

Good luck to all of you guys tooooo, I can't wait to see out updates!

Oh yeah.....I'm also taking some before pictures today, maybe I'll post them!

I'm also going to keep busy today by cleaning the house top to bottom, a clean house relaxes me, LOL, I want to come home tomorrow to everyhting being in order!

My surgery time is 12:00PM (YUCK!) but I arrive at 9:00. I have to get there an hour earlier than most people because of my history with difficult veins. I'll have to leave my place around 8:15 due to the lovely Phoenix traffic.

I'm drinking Water like a madwoman - I don't want to be dehydrated at all (temps are over 110 degrees here). I'm going to squeeze that IV bag dry before I leave tomorrow!

Best Wishes to everyone!

Amy

      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.
