Recommended Posts

Hey Sleevers! Tomorrow is my big day!!! I guess I am posting this because well one I would so appreciate your prayers and second I would love to share my experience for future sleevers. Please fell free to ask about my experience. I will have plenty of time during my hospital stay to read and answer questions. I hope I can help and put many of you at ease by sharing my experience. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this topic and sorry if I posted it in the wrong place I am fairly new to this. =)

Thank you for your kind words. Australia is my dream vacation destination. Lucky you! I am from Eagle Pass, Texas, USA right on the border of Mexico (1mile away).

      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.
