I'm so exited!!! I cannot believe that tomorrow at this time I'll be in surgery!!! CRAZY!!!! I scheduled my surgery date a month ago tomorrow and felt like it would NEVER get here and this past month just flew by! I'm ready! I've lost 15.4 lbs on my pre-op diet! I'll get my official weigh-in tomorrow, but I'm going to stick with my personal scale for the rest of my weight tracking. It's close enough to my dr's scale for me! Prayers for all of our March sleevers going in this week! Thanks for all the support and I'll see y'all over on the losers bench!! YAY!!

Dana,

I am saving you a spot right next to me! I know that you will do great because the "Great Healer" will be with you. I am praying for you today and I will pray tomorrow. Please let me know how you are when you are up to it. And don't forget to sip as often as you can and walk as soon as you can (especially when you dont feel like it). Get out of that bed as soon as they let you. It really does speed your recovery.

Blessings to you,

Good luck DisneyMomma, I am 5 days post op and feeling great! Just get up and walk every 2 hours, eat slowly, get your meds every 4 hours and you will do fine! Walking is the key! And you will be amazed at how great passing gas feels the first time! It took until Sunday, but well worth the wait! I know, gross, but you will see! Keep on walking! My prayers are with you and you will be fine! Stephs new beginning!

      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.
