Anewme Sailed Through Surgery



Recommended Posts

Anewme is out of surgery and in her room. She had to wait about 2 hours due to doctor running behind. Dr. Merriman repaired a small hernia. I am her mother. Dr. Merriman sleeved me in February 2011. I am doing great and expect her to do better than me. Rock that sleeve girl!

Hi friends...this is AnewMe...posting from the hospital. So far I have been extremely blessed and give all the glory to Jesus! My mother has been my angel and encouraged me to get up and get moving. The pain after surgery is definitely not something I would want to do everyday, but with the medication it was tolerable. I am moving better each time I get up. Will continue to post updates!! Thanks fir all your thoughts! So excited about what the future holds.

      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.
