Big Day Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe that tomorrow is almost here & I will be having my surgery! It was less then 3 months ago when I made the decision on doing this & attend the seminar. I'm so excited! It's funny that I'm pretty ok tonight & not freaking out. Feeling like I'm so ready for this.

Me too and I'm hungry as hell!

Best of luck

Congratulations! I am right behind you, scheduled for Oct. 13th! I have researched & researched & researched, not once have I felt like not doing it or changing my mind. I am ready as well. I think the risk of the disease "outweigh" the risks of the surgery. Yes, pun intended! Let us know how you are doing regularly! Good luck tomorrow!

All went good! I'm 3 days post op. Everyday I feel better, just a bit tired. I was lucky and didn't need any pain meds. Had some uncomfortable gas pockets in my shoulder, but the walking help. I definitely glad that I got passed that hurdle, now I know for the real hard work!

Wishing everyone the best!

I was just wondering how you made out. Glad you don't need pain meds. I got back yesterday and DW and the dogs and I went for a 2 mile walk and I feel great.

I am awfully hungry, though. Best wishes and keep us posted on your progress.

      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.
