Need advice too anyone

My husband is my best support person and only real one right now. My issue

I'm pre and will see my Surgeon in December for a surgery date. Im excited to get this close even though surgery may not be til feb or march I'm in the 6 month program. My problem is that, my hubby is schedule out for his job and may not make the appointment in time should I go alone. I'm ok with going alone to the appt. but having him there would be better.

I tried rescheduling but the next available Surgeon's appt is in Jan. I'm tired of waiting too.

Any positive advice.

I love this site and the support

I would just go to the appointment without him...my consult was fairly quick and straight forward. If your husband has any questions make a list and ask the surgeon questions for both of you. I would definitely make sure our hubs has time off when you have your surgery as a Military Wife I definitely understand how demanding some jobs can be time wise :) Hope this helps.

Hello all! Has qnyones hair falling out during their loosing phase? I'm only 9 days post op and was wondering since our hair is different do our fall out as much as someone with finer hair? And if so what was done about it. I'm thinking about staying natural rather than my press and curl.

Hi Kalimomof3

Thank you sooo much for such good advice!

Yep, I won't put this off cause I'm getting more determined to make it happen.. My hubby is supportive but already plan a work event that day before my appointment. I asked him to take vacation when I'm having surgery he said yes. He supported me through a tough knee injury too.

At first, I thought this is a way different type of surgery. Major surgery but, it has the commonality of getting Healthy in it.

Thanks, I'm a newbie and not tech Savvy but feel

Free to add me as a friend.

Thanks again for the encouragement

      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.
