Evaluations… complete baby!



Recommended Posts

Yeahhh I survived so far! The evaluations were pretty simple, baring my soul for the therapist was well a tad uncomfortable. I went in with my tats all covered so as to appear as "normal" and well adjust as possible… and I think I may have just pulled it off! lol hahaha She said I passed but did recommend I seek therapy for my "very tragic childhood" wowza she used a few phrases while referencing my childhood that made me feel a lil odd. All in all Id say its been cake so far. I didn't get any info on when to do my labs, my surgeon had said at my last appointment I had 3 things to do 1.) nut apt 2.) physc apt 3.) labs. I got a call from the nut and therapist but nothing on the labs. I left a message for the office but never heard back. Perhaps setting up the voicemail on my cell would help, no? Thats about all new my way, nothing super exciting at 30!

Have a good day all!

      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.
