Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone!

Well 12 hours from now I will be heading to hospital to get my band! I am feeling nervous, excited, and scared all wrapped up together. What is really on my nerves is my fiance keep asking me how do I feel and am I ready?! Well, today was the last day of the "OLD" me! The next chapter/phase of my life begins. For 36 years I have been overweight! This is truly an emotional journey because I just got comfortable being obese, feeling pretty and loving myself. Now, I am getting ready to venture into unfamiliar terriority and it's scary as heck!!! All kinds of questions and emotions are constantly running in my mind. I am prayed up and ready for my journey.

See you on the other side cornut.gif

      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.
