All Sept 12 Sleevers - Are You Ready?



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for tomorrow afternoon and yes I am nervous.. but I think I am more nervous about what life would be like if I don't have it... I have been on the low carb for two weeks and today is day 2 of the clear liquid pre-op... I have lost 8 lbs... but I am STARVING... ugh. There isn't enough broth/jello/Mio/water to fill me up lol... But I know it will be worth it.... I watched two of my aunts die morbidly obese and I don't want to "be them" and that's where I am headed if I don't have it... Prayers and blessings for everyone..!

Wow I can't believe that after all those long months of pre op testing my day is finally here. Tomorrow @ 745 am. I can't wait. I am a little nervous and anxiety. For the past few days I haven't been able to even get my shakes and Water in. I know I will definately have to work on that. Good luck tomorrow to all the sleevers being done tomorrow and I wish you all a speedy recovery! See you on the other side!

I have to take 2 enemas but I don't think its as effective as drinking the magnesium carbonate. I might need to go make a run to Walmart

Wow.. I am lucky I guess... two days clear liquid ( I am starving by the way, ugh ) and one anti nausea pill three hours prior to surgery tomorrow afternoon... No enemas, laxatives, or magnesium whatever that is LOL

Surgery in the morning @ 7:30, wow can't believe the time has finally came... I didn't have to drink any of that-just did 2 weeks of pre-op liquid diet & I did good but all the sudden now the evening before I'm starving but this time tomorrow I'll be sleeved... Praying for nothing crazy to happen... Wishing everyone luck & Gods blessings on you tomorrow...

      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.
