Any December Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Well I went in for my preop today and they had to move my surgery date from Dec 3rd to Dec 6th. I was a little upset but nothing I can do about it. I saw the dr and the nurse practioner and well I guess I am all set for the 6th. I got my rx for Zofran, was told I need to get Pepcid Complete and pretty much know what to expect.

My surgery date is December 7th. Anyone scheduled on or near that date? I figure I'll be able to decorate the house and do my shopping beforehand, then be in pretty good shape by the time Christmas rolls around.

I just got my date today and I am December 7th as well!! So excited :D

I'm scheduled for Dec 1, I have done my shopping online this year and we will decorate right after thanksgiving, so that way I can just focus on healing.

Hi Stacy,

Great to hear you are another December 7th sleever. You, Angie and I are the only ones on that date I believe so far--hope I haven't missed anyone. I just had my final doctor visit yesterday and alll I need to do is a two day liquid diet before surgery. I will be decorating and shopping like crazy during the week after Thanksgiving so I can rest up and enjoy the holiday. Keep us updated on your progress.

Anne

I am also having surgery on the sixth. I will say a little pray that your goes well. I am not looking forward to the month of December but the months to follow will be great! My husband keeps reminding me that next year I will be a loser. Ive tried to lose weight for ten long years and next year I will lose FOR GOOD!

Good luck to you. Hope to hear from you soon.

I am scheduled for the 7th of December as well. So excited! I am a full time college student and wanted to schedule the surgery in between semesters. So glad to meet so many fellow sleevers who will share this experience on the same day!

      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.
