Leaving For The Hospital! Surgery Today =)



Recommended Posts

Went for a short walk yesterday..got tired really fast. Was able sit for a bit..mouth is very clamy...now I'm up trying to drink 2oz of Water liquid Protein and Crystallight...only thing I can handle right now is water.. Crystal light is too sweet cramps my stomach. Blowing in that tube just isn't happening. No gas pains but every time I butler I feel light I want to throw-up...

Im in the hospital too eating some chicken broth and water...which is awesome because its the first thing ive been alot to drink.. sorry you feel like throwi g up and i hear you on that tube thing it sux. Wishing both of us a speedy recovery

      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.
