Sleeve In The Morning!



Recommended Posts

At the Hotel in Mexicali. All my pre-op is done and everything went great. 2 hour ride from airport had some great scenery! Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos are very cool. We've been taken care of very well and just had dinner at the hotel. Really good food... More updates in the morning.

Back in my room! Other than my legs taking their sweet time to wake up from the morphin shot, I feel pretty good. Feel like someone punched me in the sternum, but that was expected. Feeling fantastic!!!! No pain meds right now but may take them for bed time... Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes...

Ok first full day and the worst of it has been my drain. Took some nausea and pain meds through the night. Other than that I've been walking like crazy and trying to take in my fluids as much as possible. Everyone is very nice and they know how to stick u! Hahaha

      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.
