August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?



Recommended Posts

Because my BMI isn't over 35 they aren't making me do the pre-op liquid diet which is nice, the downside is that I have insulin and blood sugar issues because of my PCOS and a couple of other complicating factors- if I don't eat steadily I get the sweats, shaking, and severe stomach cramps. By the time I realize how bad I am, I always end up binge eating. I'm the typical "you need to eat Protein every 2 hours and track your food" type, but even when I've been extremely careful and watchful I still over eat.

I loathe myself when I go over board and half the time I'm trying to do, or eat the right thing. A lot of this also has to do with the fact that I'm an athlete so my brain thinks I need 3000 to 5000 calories a day, even when I'm not training as hard when I'm in my off season (during the Fall I swim 4 to 6 hours a day and in the Spring 2 to 4 hours a day). Right now I'm barely getting any exercise compared to what I normally get, and a month out from starting to train again but my body still wants to eat like I'm training hard core. My body is bi-polar! :/

Dlmeekie, I am guessing you haven't started your preop yet. We are about the same weight wise and I start my preop two weeks prior to surgery. Right now I am focusing on no sugar, caffine or artificial sweetner on my own just to help ease the transition when it comes. I didn;t want to go to a liquid diet while I still had sugar issues. I am 1 week sugar free and feel so much better. I have lost any weight but that wasn't my goal.

BTW ( I had Taco Bell today to, but no coke LOL) I will shoot for a better dinner.< /p>

5'4" must be the magic height for August. I'm also 5'4" and 240 lbs.

5'4 and 238! 5'4 is surely the magic number.

The list has grown sooo since the last time I checked it! There are several other 8/1s on the list now!!! :D

It was soooo hard for me to concentrate at work today. Going to get my eyebrows waxed and a pedicure after work to prepare. I wish it was Weds already, it sucks that I won't know my surgery time until tmrw. I hope its early, I want to be on the loser's bench ASAP!

Name: Nicole

Surgery Date: August 21st

Dr. Scott Stowers

Age: 31

From: Fort Worth Texas

Highest Weight: 250

Current Weight: 250

Goal Weight: 140

A wee lil bit about me: I am a 31 year old newly wed (well its been just over a year). I have a awesome "too big for her britches" 10 year old daughter. I have been struggling with my LIFE for an eternity, but the weight issues began about 8 years ago.

I have everything I ever dreamed of, and I should be the happiest I have ever been but my weight is out of control and I have spiraled into one hell of a depression. I have been coming out of it little by little. I plan on finding a therapist to see once a month after surgery.

I believe in order for myself to be successful I will need to get my spiritual being healthy along with my physical being.

The list has grown sooo since the last time I checked it! There are several other 8/1s on the list now!!! :D

It was soooo hard for me to concentrate at work today. Going to get my eyebrows waxed and a pedicure after work to prepare. I wish it was Weds already, it sucks that I won't know my surgery time until tmrw. I hope its early, I want to be on the loser's bench ASAP!

right there with you MsDallassleever - pedi & eyebrows, bag packed, can't concentrate and I do not know what time my Wed. surgery is until they call me tomorrow between 8am and 5pm.... it will be hard to not hang out by the phone.

Welcome to all newbies! I just finished work and begin my Clear Liquids tomorrow. surgery is WEDS!!! yes I am nervous! We are putting a lot of faith in these docs but have to do our part too. I was not told to lose weight prior to surgery just NOT GAIN not Gorge. When you eat uncontrollably it engorges the liver which has to be moved out of the way to get to your stomach. Surgeries are cancelled if the liver is too engorged and it is unsafe. So I put myself on South Beach for the last 3 weeks and bought a pile of Atkins bars to get me through my weak times. It worked well... Have lost 11.5 pounds! I hope all us August first gals are able to log back on soon I want to know my pals did well ... Hang in there Ladies ... We are almost to ground zero! I feel like this is my chance to truly begin anew and all my old diet failures wiped clean and forgiven! I'm amazed I am decaffinated and may actually want to stay that way!! To all those following check on us and hang in there...YOU CAN DO THIS!

My goodness, my nerves have kicked it up a notch today!! One more work day, one travel day and then surgery day! I am so excited, crying one minute but usually tears of sheer happiness. My poor hubby, he is in for an emotional ride with me the next few days!!

Icandothis, I sure hope to see you before Rosy heads us back to the USA.

I have to run for now to eat, my BS is dropping. I will be back later. :)

Too funny!! I'm scheduled to get my brows and my hair did tomorrow! We girls gotta look good when we get the majority of our stomachs removed!

Joyce, I am so there with you. I have been feeling pretty confident about my decision. Today my nerves took over. I have been second guessing myself all day and replaying the worse case scenarios. Struggling to find my positive thoughts!! Hang in there my Thursday buddy!! I'm thinking of you.

      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.
