July Master List



Recommended Posts

Thinking of everyone who has been ahead of me and going in behind me today. Tomorrow is my surgery and today has been Clear liquids ans Dulcalax. Hummm, so much fun! It really is not bad but the "head hunger" is getting to me. Not to mention having half of the family here for me and watching them eat fried chicken and some awfully darn good looking biscuits, LOL. I will be under at 10:30 tomorrow morning. Please send out a prayer or two if you are able.

Hugs to ALL,

Hansi

Hey Hansi,

Don't worry about the head hunger too much. After your surgery today you won't want a bite of anything. I'm struggling to sip on Water, garorade and tried to have some broth. You won't want to eat anyting for a while! Someone could walk in here and hand me a double bacon cheesburger and I wouldn't touch it. Once you feel nausea after the surgery you won't ever want that to come back.

I sent an e-mail in to the support because it is not letting me update the original list anymore. I reposted it and have been editing the repost (on page 4) but I will update the main one as soon as I figure out how.

I got my surgery date! July 29th!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAYYYYYYYYYYYY so excited for you!!!! I'm on day 2 of my liquid diet and am utterly miserable. I'm retaining all of this Fluid and have put on 4 pounds in the 2 1/2 days that I've been doing it. Hopefully tomorrow it will kick into gear, and I'll loose this bloated drowned feeling. :(

No problem. I just feel bad that I can't edit the original post anymore and add people to the list :-/ I thought about maybe starting a new thread? But there's already so much discussion on this one.

I can't believe I'm having surgery in 9 days! That is nuts to me! I have to go on Thursday to an all-day pre-op class about Vitamins and whatnot. lol. I'm so ready for this!

Happy Saturday Firecrackers,

Please change my surgery date to July 29th. I got a call from Louise yesterday letting me know that the 28th was very full and asking if I could move my date back a day. I already bought my tickets to San Diego but have not purchased my return flight Louise offered to pay for extra night in San Diego so it's going to be a mini vacation without food!

Let's see, where would I rather be without food? In Texas with 100 degree plus temperatures or San Diego with temperatures in the 70's. One day plus or minus doesn't mean a lot to me so I said sure change me and I get a bonus! To go one better flights home are less on Monday so all in all this is saving me a chunk of money.

I am not computer literate or anything, Just wondering if you can put everyone on a excel sheet then attach...Just a thought. I have never tried it, but there is an attachment tab at the bottom.

      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.
