Sugery Is Jan 30 Anybody Else?



Recommended Posts

So date is set and in going to mexi Cali to see dr aceve. I'm so ready to start feeling like myself again! I haven't always been big so I don't feel like a fat girl inside. I've done diet after diet like the HCG which I did lose 65 pounds on but gained it all back. So I'm hoping this will help me lose it and keep it off.

Yeah I need a support system too the only person that knows is my husband. I tried telling my best friend ,which is heavy too, she says that I shouldn't do it we can do it the "natural" way so I can't talk to her about it. And my family will freak out if I tell them I'm waiting till its already done.

I'm on the 25th. I'm very excited, but really haven't told many people. I guess I fear I will somehow fail once again. But I'm ready and hopeful for my future. Best wishes all!

Mine is on the 23rd of January, and like you, I haven't told many people. Maybe it is because deep down inside I am afraid of failure also..hummm. Mainly it is just because I don't want people all over me about it. My kids and boyfriend know, and that is what is important to me. Best of luck to everyone!!

Mine is scheduled for 1/30 also! I haven't told many people either and I am actually wondering who I can get to take me for my surgery, which will be over two hours away. But, God didn't bring me this far to stop now. So I will figure something out.

Congratulations to everyone that is scheduled. And to those that are already on the loser's bench, thanks so much for sharing your stories both good and bad. This site has been SO helpful to me.

      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.
