Finally Getting Sleeved Today



Recommended Posts

I am beyond nervous right now of being sleeved today. I think I'm more nervous being put to sleep than I am of the surgery it self. My surgery is at 3:30pm, & I hope my surgeon isn't tired by the time he gets to me.

Congrats and good luck today. If you've never been put under before, don't worry about it, it's a piece of cake (umm. maybe that's a bad choice of words for this forum...LOL) The surgery will be over and you will be in recovery and it will seem like you just went to sleep a minute before. easy stuff. All the best!!!

He/She won't be!!! They do this all the time! My surgery was at 4:30 and didn't finish until close to 7 (it was long, I know)... I actually asked my mom if he looked tired after (he talked to her in the waiting room) and she said "no, not at all".. .and this was a while later so she wouldn't have sugar coated it for me.

You are going to be on the loser's bench soon!!! I"m so excited for you!

(((hugs))) You are doing to do great!

      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.
