Bummed... But I Shouldn't Be :(



Recommended Posts

My Dr. Office called today to reschedule my surgery... pushed back a week to 2/20. After the past year of jumping through hoops, it is less then a month away, so I should still be happy...right?

:) (<---that is my fake smile.)

I can only imagine your disappointment. I will fake smile with you and pray that time speeds along. Don't dwell on what could have been, dwell on what you are going to make happen with your new sleeve.

Feeling you are going to rock your sleeve! Hugs to you.

My surgery is scheduled for the 6th- and seriously, I would be a hot mess if they called to push it back! I'm so sorry!

Hey it's ok... that's very frustrating!! :angry:

That said, it is less than a month away. Time flies super fast - I mean I'm working on my 17th month sleeved now! Sure doesn't feel like it. Your day will be here soon. Xox

Thanks Ladies! I am coming to terms with it. Lol! An extra week to prepare I suppose... and my kids want to hang out at the hospital while I am 'under the knife' so they can now since it is a school holiday. Thanks again for your kind words. It is very appreciated!

:) (<--- that's a real smile!)

any setback is disappointing - you psyche yourself up for a certain goal and then it feels like someone pulls a rug out from under your feet - but it WILL happen. Trust me. Take it from someone that has had several surgery dates only to have something happen through no fault of my own and have my surgery CANCELLED. A week more to get yourself ready - not so bad. I'm now sleeved and so very relieved and happy :)

That is hard, but sounds like it will be okay! Look at all those 20's and 2's in your new date...good strong date. :-) Mine was 10-22-10 and for some odd reason I really like the date!

      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.
