Tomorrow is my day!



Recommended Posts

Well, my surgery is tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital (an hour away from where I live) at 5:30am! Ugh!

I am so excited and also so nervous. Every time I think about it I get butterflies in my tummy.

I woke up from a funny dream night before last. I dreamt that I had had half my stomach removed and woke up thinking "OMG! Why in the world would I do that?" Then remembered why. Hmmmm.........Aren't dreams odd things?

Anyway, I would appreciate any good thoughts and prayers sent my way.

Stay there as long as you possibly can. There's a HUGE DIFFERENCE between hospital IV fluids and pain meds, and trying to get all your fluids in at home. Trust me on this, I had a horrible experience after leaving.

Good luck!!! Dreams are weird! I've dreaming about blood and werid things a lot during the last few weeks!

5:30 is great, at least you won't have much time to think about the surgery tomorrow morning!!!

      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.
