Recommended Posts

Hello Buckeye Girl.

I live in a suburb of Dayton. Nice to meet ya! Lori

 

I work in Columbus so we really aren't that far apart. I will do my best to post my experience. I really wish we were going at the same time, we could have even been on the same flights. Shoppingbee isn't too far from us either, we will have to plan a get together after we all heal a bit, we can form our own little support group :)

I'll be getting into San Diego on the 21, surgery on the 22 . My son is planning on going too ( If his passcard gets back on time), he is 18 and goes to NKU. We live near the cvg airport in Kentucky.

Anyone seeing Dr Almanza September 18 through 23?? My surgery date is the 19 th!! I would like to be in touch with someone else going around the same time. I think the support will be not only good for me but for my mom who is coming with me. She has been so amazing and supportive even though I know she is scared!

Hi Shelly,

I'm new to the forum. My name is Veronica and I will be there on the 21st!!! I'm excited, I'm coming alone so im glad to know that there will be someone else in the house besides myself.

What part of Ohio are you from? I live in Circleville, OH. I get my sleeve with Almanza on the 10th. Too bad we aren't going at the same time.

Buckeye Girl Good Luck on your Journey tomorrow. I will be thinking about you. If possible keep us posted on your recovery.

      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.
