last 2 days before my sleeve and what am i doing



Recommended Posts

I'm cooking! Like crazy, i'm cooking. Making guloush, chilli, cauliflower and such, to puree for meals after i'm home and allowed pureed foods. am i nuts..well probably! but thinking it was a good idea to make stuff up ahead of time. Made Chilli for me then boiled the Pasta part and added it for the family for dinner tonight. Pureed the cauliflower for me, so far it looks ok. Nothing like making up a bunch of hot meals on a 100 degree day.

Sad part is, i'm hungry now..moreso than the last few days...got to keep my eye on the prize!

Good luck to all us August people in the next few weeks...we can do this!

OMG me too! Although I have a week to go! I never thought of pureeing any of it though! I have just been cooking for my family alot. Lasagna is in the oven now - I can't wait to do a ricotta bake for me after surgery! So are you freezing stuff? I can't have soft for 7-10 days after then I am pretty limited, eggs, chopped chicken, tuna and fish. But wow does that all sound good right about now!!

Mememeee, I am freezing the meals. If I don't like them, then no big deal..such small amounts.

Big Sexxy, oh wow that's amazing! I hope to see you, walking in the halls!

      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.
