Surgery on 5-Aug...

Why are my feet suddenly so cold?

And what are these knots in my stomach?

But I AM doing the right thing.

Morbid Obesity

Hypertension

Type 2 Diabetes

Dyslipidemia

Jitters I guess! Sounds normal - I am pretty sure I will be running around sunday night in a nervous state - I have my list going and have packed a few things - I know I will forget something! Getting new tires because I am sure the one bad one is going to wait til Monday morning to give me trouble! Hang in there, I think it's normal!!:lol:

Hi--my surgery is Aug. 5th also!!! I am feeling the exact same things you are--excited, nervous, feel-like-I'm-gonna-throw-up, can't-wait-for-my-day-to-be-here ---plus about a million more feelings swirling all around me! I just have to have faith that God has led me to this decision and He will keep me safe!!! Good luck to you and God Bless!!!

      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.
