First Post - Op Appointment



Recommended Posts

Today I had my first post op appointment and it went very well. The Nut stated that I was getting my Protein and my fluids in. She actually liked the way my liquid log book was and I can incorporated it into my puree diet into my food log. I can start puree stage on Monday along with my other medicine (calcium, B12 shot once a month, and iron).

The big news is that I have lose 10.4 pounds. I am so excited and proud of myself. It took a long time getting to this point but I am here.

Thanks

Nae

Thank you all. It was struggle the first two day trying to get my 40 oz in and 50+ Protein in but Saturday it just clicked. I pray that we all have great success and we can encourage each other along this lifestyle journey.

Stay sweet

      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.
