Sitting In Dr Office Waiting On The Nurse



Recommended Posts

Here I sit waiting fir mt appt. um 2 hours early because I was afraid to drive around waiting on the appt and end up at McDonalds. My stomach is growling which is embarrassing. I had half of the little bottles of Sprite Zero hopeing it would make the growling start. Still even eith no reason I am terrified he will halt the surgery. In my mind it s still just a dream. Today is day 2 of preop diet. Stoppingy inflamation meds didnt help. In do much psin and afraid to tell the nurse. What if I tell her and cncel my surgery fir the 25 th?

How do I exercise being in so much pain it hurts to walk. Ok. Im done venting. Thanks for listening. 35 min till I see the Nurse.

The visit was "ok" I had a trainee with me. She tried to be helpful but she didn't know how. They

told me to take Tylenol for pain. Ive been taking Hydros. Something will have to give after the surgery.

I was 3 more pounds less ! Im not hungry on the diet foods and shakes they gave me. Day one was

horrible but Im on day 5 now and its not bad at all..It wasn't that I overate to get this size, it was what

I ate. Anything handy in a package so I didn't have to cook. With them giving me exactly what I can

have in a day is great ! Finally found a way to drink the nasty vanilla shakes...add Crystal Light

Orange. OMG its good. Tastes like a dreamcylcle . Which gave me another idea of Freeing them

in the morning and have them as popciclesat night or throughout my day on weekends. :D

      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.
