Preop Appointment With Mchottie



Recommended Posts

Just finished my preop appointment and was completely happy with the amount of information provided and can rest assure now that everything is going to be okay. From the nurse, dietician and my McHottie of a doctor, I am going to be just fine. So since last Monday, I have officially lost 9 pounds and was able to have a piece of bread today with a penny size of honey almond cream cheese and will have a piece of meat tonight. By no means am I going to revert back to what got me here. McHottie informed me that the anesthesiologist will give me a call on Sunday night just to make sure everything is okay and I have to be there early at 6am Monday morning. I discussed with him the presence of my 8 year old son at the hospital and he made a note to pay special attention to him and my husband to make sure he knows that mommy is okay.

Yes, I am five days out from the start of a new life with my family thank you Jesus!!!

      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.
