Happy Anniversary To Me



Recommended Posts

One year ago today was the beginning of the rest of my life. The past year has been an absolute blessing. I have truly enjoyed everyday of my journey and I am still in total bliss with my sleeve. This has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I feel absolutely wonderful. I have not felt this good in more than a decade. Of course the weight loss has done wonders for my self esteem and self image. It feels wonderful to have people constantly telling you how good you look and being able to receive it because it is true. I love my life. I love how I feel. I really like how I look. Everything is going really great. I have not had one complication. I could not have asked for a better experience.

      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.
