results of Upper GI



Recommended Posts

got my pictures and results of my upper GI. and tomorrow is my visit to get the ok for the lapband.... i dont know what im looking at in these pictures... "is it poop or is that a lung?"

also i have started dieting and working out... the doctor didnt tell me to but three days ago i started having bad anxiety and couldnt catch my breath, also i could feel my heart like skipping beats... i can just feel my weight is too much for my body, i cannot sit around and weight for lapband. and i know lapband isnt going to be my solution, its just a tool, so why not start now. i feel so outta shape... i went to the Water park in orlando with my family and i couldnt go on any of the slides (mostly because i couldnt walk the stairs) also i couldnt fit in the largest life vest they had :/ ok well im off topic here lol

heres the pictures from my UGI

      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.
