March 2013 Surgery Dates?



Recommended Posts

I have until May. I tried the Bariatric fusion Protein shack and they are quite good. I have my first nutrition class tomorrow. I have a little over 200 lbs to loose. I have tried everything else I just hope it will help. I wish everyone the very best health and here is to our new start.

What web site did you get your shakes from and how much were they

My date is March 6th and while I am quite excited and hopeful, I am also a bit nervous. I guess that is natural. Just not sure what to expect relative to pain and I have two young children.

Hello to all my fellow March bandsters. My surgery date is March 8th and I am super excited. I have been working on this since November and feels like it has taken forever. I am on day 4 of my pre-op diet and its not too bad. Love seeing the scale go down already. I know it will slow up after the surgery for awhile but to me any number that goes down is a good number. This is my first post and I am hoping to find some friends who would like to go through this journey with me. To Celebrate the ups and downs that we are all going to have. This is just one step to a new, healthier life. And I am praising God for it!!!

Surgery in the morning...I made the mistake of reading the day of surgery stories on here last night, so now I am so very nervous. I have tried all day to think about anything else but my nerves have taken over. Jen, what time is your surgery tomorrow?

      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.
