August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?



Recommended Posts

Yay!!! Now I have a partner in crime! I am so glad I started weaning myself of the junk befor the liquid diet. It really hasn't been too hard and it feels good to know I'm already working on changing my ways. Honestly, I'm hating food right now and just ready to get this show on the road!!!

Good luck to you as you take each step towards a healthy YOU! Hugs!

I wish my date wasnt so far away, ive been told that a 'booked surgeon is a good surgeon' so at least i can take comfort in that!

In the meantime I took a page from Slenderella's book and have started my own "Pre-Op Wean-Off"

July 3 - No diet soda/carbonated beverages

July 10 - No sugar

July 17 - No fried foods

July 24 - No white/refined grains/bread/carbs

July 31 - No caffiene (eeeeek!)

Aug 7 - Pre-op liquid diet begins

Hard to believe pre-op is only a month away!!

No worries Vixkey, I think we all have tons of questions. Just when I feel I have everything answered, I go to sleep and my mind thinks of more to ask. I can't say that I have slept the best in a few weeks, and I can only imagine it gets worse the closer to surgery.

      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.
