In San Diego Now... Waiting On Our Driver



Recommended Posts

So we're here. Its 2:25 and we were suppose to be picked up at 2. I'm thirsty. I'm hungry. I'm cranky. Surgery is suppose to be today at 6pm. I'm worried there wont be enough time for pre op tests. I really don't want to "rush" through the process that took me years to decide to do.

Frustrated.

Calm down. It will be ok. Im sure they will do all the tests before they take you to surgery. Try to relax and take some deep breaths... you are about to be sleeved! Its great on the losers bench! You will be here with us soon!

Still waiting. Been waiting for over an hour. I'm just nervous & not eating or drinking today has made me a little crabby. Hoping any minute now ...

Nobody is answering. Drivers phone goes straight to voice mail. Coming up on 2 hours waiting. All I can do is laugh at this point. Wish I could go drink a cocktail! I'm sure this will be a minor bump in the road... still frustrating.

Did he come? He may have gotten stuck at the border.....unfortunately it happens. Have you tried calling your patient coordinator?

      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.
