I've had take out or eaten out every day since deciding on my surgery. I know I have gained close to 10lbs but I'm sick of it. Ready to be in control!

I just completed all my pre surgery tests ie., upper GI, 8 blood viles, CXR, and appointment with Internal Medicine doctor. :lol0: I have a 3 hour class on Wednesday then have one week and start my preop diet! Woohoo! I am getting closer. I was really bad this weekend. :w00t: We went out to eat 3 times and I was sicker than a dog. Back to my high Protein, low carb diet. I am not even weighing myself today because I don't want to know how much I gained of the 20 lbs that I have lost! Hope everyone is having a great start of the week!

Do any of you think like me? Im so excited about getting VSG but at the same time i think to myself "what if i dont lose anything"? Could i be the the one that wont lose and will stay fat forever? At the same time I can visalize myself being skinny, its crazy. I would like to think all positive thoughts, but that "WHAT IF is stuck in my head. I wish I could fast foward to 6 months from now so i could check out my progress. I guess I just have fear of the unknown???:thumbup1:

kerri21.... thats exactly how i feel too... im scared that for whatever reason it wont restrict my eating and i will still be hungry all the time.. and then a few mins later i can see myself happy healthy and small... its a strange thing but i think if you are like that too.. then its normal lol!!!

Kerri...I keep alternating between worrying that I will lose weight and then gain it all back and then some AND worrying that the surgery will not work for me and I will have done all this work for nothing. Still eating lots!! LOL. So glad we all have each other to worry with.

17 days until my sleeve!!

I don't have a date yet...waiting is sooooo hard!

I have my last "nutritional counseling" appointment on Oct. 5th, then assuming that the surgeons office can submit everything on the 5th or 6th...then it is a wait until they approve or (shudder) deny it. Then I'll have a date. Still hoping for Oct. date, I guess I could go into Nov. but really wanting Oct!

      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.
