Recommended Posts

I'm so excited!

Next Wednesday morning, April 28, at 7:30 am I'll be going into surgery.

I explained to them my dilemna and my small window of opportunity and they made it happen! I love my doc!

oh and I'm down 23 lbs since the middle of last month when I started changing my diet and then started the pre-op diet at the first of this month.

haha...love the banana!

Thanks to both of you...I'm all the expected things. Nervous, happy, excited, anxious, apprehensive.

I got all the chewable Vitamins and stuff from the surgeon's office so that's out of the way. I have two prescriptions to get filled.

I have to go to the hospital on Friday to do my pre-op there.

      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.
