Morning of surgery



Recommended Posts

Good Morning All. Thanks for all the well wishes. I was too busy the friday and yesterday regretting my decision. I have all intentions of going walking today. And my 2 year old wants me to pick him up every chance he gets. He gets mad because mommy says no sometimes. Sorry I didn't tell you guys I forgot to add minutes to my phone. But I'll be home for 2 weeks so I'll be on the boards. I'm feeling gas. Sipping my Slimfast low carb and feel a little better today. I can sleep on my side as long as I have a pillow on that side I'm laying on. But thanks every one for all the kind words. You guys are the best support anyone could ask for!!!! :clap2:

Much :love: everyone.

Hey Marcelle, I think we all have the "what the heck did I do to myself" phase that we go through. I had mine on the 3rd and 4th day. When we feel better I'm sure we'll feel better about it as well. Good luck!

I'm so glad things went well for you and that you're home and recuperating. It will just get better from here on out. Congratulations on going through with it...you'll be so glad you did.

Marcelle! Congratulations! Joy had her anxiety attack about the 5th day. Tell your DH to be ready for the phone call. LOL I'm looking forward to seeing a lot less of both of you....

Best of luck with your surgery, the road to recovery, and the wonderful road to "a lesser you"! It'll all be worth it in the end, and your road will be a longer one for it!

So happy to hear everything went ok for you. And I had that sinking feeling of OMG what have I done about a week after surgery. It will pass and as you start seeing your weightloss you'll have answered your own question of why??!

Hey Marcelle, I have my surgery tomorrow morning. I am sooo terrified. Just knowing you came through it ok has calmed me and made me so happy. I'm glad you're doing well.

      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?

      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.
