October Sleevers! Announce Yourselves



Recommended Posts

Day 3 of 10 day pre-op liquid diet. Hard day yesterday at work. Was very tired. I have woke up Monday and last night at 3am STARVING ! Anyone else felt like that ? Getting excited. Fly to San Antonio next Wed for surgery in Mexico Thursday. Good luck and prayers to all Octosleevers!

I am also on day 3 I'm not waking up starving but I can't seem to sleep I'm a housewife so I try to stay in the bed the majority of the day but it doesn't help I go to bed super early b/c if I'm awake I think about eating. I just want to encourage you to hang in there we can do my sleeve date is Oct 17

Done did it! Surgery done at 10. Had to stay in RR until 2 due to a bed shortage. I am in my room now, been sleeping since I got here. The Roxicat knocks me on my butt. Pain is ok. Just in upper left abdomen. Feels Like the stitches pain you get after running fast. Drinking 30 cc Water every 15 minutes while awake. No nausea at all. Exvept for the being so sleepy and the tolerable pain, i feel pretty good. So far so good !

I'm so happy you and all the others that we have heard from are doing well, I wanted to contact you this morning but was to late :( so I'm very relieved all is well and you and the others are in my prayers for a speedy recovery.

Hey guys! My surgery was at 8:00 this morning. I'm doing very well. I had some nausea when I woke up but they took care of that. I got up to walks bit ago and was still woozy so I did one short lap. The pain is not bad but I am using my morphine pump just to stay ahead of it I've only used 2 mg lol. I will check in again later!

      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.
