I'm so depressed! I was scheduled to be banned Friday but can't because I broke my ankle and the doc is worried about blood clots. I'm glad he's looking out for me but just disappointed.

I've been with the broken ankle for 3 weeks now I have to do another 3. I cried and cried when the doctor told me. Today my blood pressure was the best it's been in 2 years. I felt like everything was going great. I'm really disappointed but I do know its for the best.

Can the not put in the filter? I had the option of having it installed if I wanted before the surgery to filter out any clots.

Tomorrows Surgery day for me too!!!...I woke up early this morning with my mind racing and thinking about surgery... A little nervous but not scared!! Focusing on other things help .... I might go to a movie tonight to keep my mind occupied...... On Clear Liquids only yesterday and today and had to deal with passing out Halloween candy yesterday!!! So tempting but I was good!!... Hoping I did my job well these last two weeks and lost some fat around my liver.... I'm down 10 lbs or maybe a little more ( my scale is untrustworthy.. Lol)

Good luck tomorrow and heal 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?

        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.
