May 1St Sleever! 3 More Days!



Recommended Posts

6:30am on Tuesday I will be at the hospital waiting for surgery.... getting very very nervous now....

But I made my grocery list today for the first 2 weeks. 1 week of Clear Liquids. 1 week of full liquids.

The grocery list was very short!

Surgery went well for me hit a small bump in the road with throwing up blood due to the lines they placed in my throat. Hurts when I sit down and stand up but I know that's temporary. Feeling positive

Glad to hear all went well! I'm 3 days post-op and feeling better each day! I can't believe I haven't had any food in almost a week. And i'm not hungry! But my stomach is doing a lot of talking to me... gurgling! LOL

Had a couple sips of coffee this morning, it was wonderful! But then I got jittery, so I guess the coffee will have to wait until I can put some mushy foods in. My incisions are already itching today! That's a good sign!

Walking is helping out tremendously!!! Keep walking!!!! and the sipping is easier now too!

      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.
