3 Days to go!



Recommended Posts

OK, I am now 3 days away from this thing. It has totally consumed my mind and I am having trouble concentrating... I find myself drifting to the actual day and my palms get a little sweaty...

I am going to see STYX this weekend and I am finding it hard to be excited about this (this is NOT normal) knowing what I am going through on Monday! I just got my surgery time 7:30 and I have to be there 1 1/2 hours before hand... I wish I could just forget about it until Sunday night, I know that will never happen..

Anywhooo...

Going out of town, then to parents for sleep over (leaving my daughter there to go bright n early Monday) I am not sure if I will be able to check here or write. If not....

SEE YOU IN BANDLAND!!!

I cannot believe it is here already! I get shivers just thinkin' it might have been me! :D

I'm really thrilled for you and I will be praying for you! You have been researchng and soul-searching and YOU ARE READY!! This is just ONE MORE STEP! (Remind me of all this in a month, ok!?)

How is the pre-diet going? Has it been difficult for you? What did Patrizia advise you for after surgery? Is there a 24-hr fast the day before surgery for Dr. Deol?

Oh, I'm so excited for you!! breathe, breathe, breathe! (Though not too deeply at the concert, you never know what may be airborne! :smoke LOL!

Post as soon as you can! I wonder if Rebecca will give me an update so I can post for you? If you'd like me to, I'd be glad to! Let me know if I can do anything!

Bailey, try to realx and enjoy the concert!! Great idea, to do something so fun and distracting during the last few days. I went on a long weekend trip to Cape Cod the week before my surgery, and it really helped to ease the tension.

Good luck next week, and let us know how it went!!

As usuall we had a fantastic time! Nice seats so we were able to see the show!

We met the Nelson's, they are definitely easy on the eyes! Very nice guys!!

OKAY,

Now for tomorrow... I have a weird CALM over me, I don't know why but I am going to try to run with it! Every once and awhile I get this flush over me, like what the heck am I doing???

The day after tomorrow at this time I will be home and healing! Will try to pop on and say "hi"!

Fred8998 your short but sweet words are great for me to focus on! Thanks!

Thanks to all who have replied, I showed them to my mother and she thinks it is great that I have a support board like this!!

OH and Debra thanks for letting me take your old date! YOURS will be here real soon!!!

Will talk to you all soon!

      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.
