Who Is With Me On April 23 Rd With Dr. Kelly?



Recommended Posts

Woo-Hoo! Just got off the phone with Omar from Dr. Kelly's office. Everything is ready and good to go! He has informed me that I will have 4 sleeve buddies getting sleeved the same day! That is such wonderful news since I am traveling alone from Michigan. Any others out there meeting me in San Diego for the trip across the border on April 22 nd? Looking forward to meeting some sleeve buddies!! ~ Michele :)

Congratulations Michele, and good luck in your journey! Sue you will probably have a sleeve buddy or two by then, I don't have one yet either but mine is not till May. I am going alone, so I guess I want a sleeve buddy more because of that LOL. Good luck!

That is why I would also love a buddy or two! I am also making the journey by myself and it will be nice to recuperate with others while there. Are you going to Dr. Kelly as well?

      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.
