I know I'm a stranger on a website but please pray for me. My surgery is in about 3 hours and I'm terrified. Any prayers would be appreciated. Have a great day, everyone.

Thanks for the well wishes and prayers, everyone. Everything went well. Surgery was yesterday AM at 11. I don't have much pain but soo much nausea. Each time I take a tiny sip of Water I feel like vomiting. Lots of dry heaving. I also have "the shakes." Not feeling awesome right now but trying to keep a good attitude.

This will pass. Hopefully soon. You can sip Water & spit it out if it is making you sick when you swallow. Hang in there!

I'm much better now & got to come home today. Been walking a lot & sipping Water & broth. I feel good. I cannot believe I did it!!

I don't have pain at the surgery site but for some reason my legs & arms, neck are super sore. Especially the creases of my legs at the top of my thighs. I wonder if there's gas in there somehow.

Thanks again, everyone.

      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.
