December sleevers!



Recommended Posts

I wish I had someone else to make her dinner for her. Luckily I can have lettuce with no calorie dressing, and I found some that tastes amazing, so at least I can eat something.

Hello!

My husband and I are having our sleeve surgury on Dec 20th. Merry Christmas to us! We are excited and scared at the same time. We start our diet on Dec 6th, and are ready to start a new journey together. Best of luck to all that are having the procedure.

Had my pre-op class today, got pre-registered at the hospital yesterday and my pre-op with my surgeon is tomorrow. I start my clear liquid diet on Saturday. Whew. Wow. I can't believe this is really going to happen! I am so anxious, nervous, excited, and scared all at the same time! DH and I will be going out for my "last meal" tomorrow night. wow. wow. This is it.....almost there!

Hello to all!

Just jumping in here...

I am scheduled for surgery on Dec. 12th. Like most I have a combination of emotions ranging from super excited to completely nervous.

Not so much nervous about sleeved life, just the surgery itself.

Good luck to all my fellow December Sleevers!

Hi all. I got my surgery date today...December 12 and pre op diet starts Monday. Didn't think it would be this quick, but I'm definitely not complaining. They actually offered me Tuesday the 6th but I have to get things in order at work first. Anywho, just wanted to share!!

I had my final preop visit with the surgeon yesterday. It was a great visit, I am excited but also really terrified. i feel very confident in my surgeon, i feel confident that I will be successful... I just hate all medical stuff so I have anxiety about the surgery. I am scheduled for the 12th, so it will be here soon!

      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.
