1 Week Post-Op Is Not What I Expected!



Recommended Posts

really sweet of you to reach out when your heart is broken. i am so sorry. what a test. it is physical pain to

loose our loved ones. it hurts. its like a bad dream at first. sometimes it hurts to even breathe. what i can say is that it takes a good person to share the pain. its one hour at a time. and then in a year or so one day at a time.

november 21 2006 i lost the love of my life. our mothers are our best friends. i am so sorry. today i can smile and i havent had my surgery yet. that is on feb the thirteenth.

remember she would want you to keep loving you. someday you will smile again and then feel guilty. dont your not moving on you are just loving you. reach out to your higher power god. you are not alone.

(((Pookeyism))) I'm so sorry!! That's the absolute hardest thing to deal with at this point in time! My best friend passed on Jan 7, 2012, so I've been a little hit and miss on posts here. I'm so sorry I didn't see this sooner!

      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.
