I Find Out My Date Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

So I started my journey in June and I'm totally thrilled and scared. Tomorrow I find out my date for surgery considering I have two months left for the insurance to approve me.(praying) Joining this forum was such a blessing. I've learned so much from everyones experiences and I now feel like the sleeve is a better option for me then the bypass. This is the first forum I've ever joined and it's been so helpful. It really gave me the heads up to what expect. Thank u everyone! But what fears me most is that I won't have my other half to support me and I'll be going through this experience alone. My husband and I are separated at the moment and don't know if we'll ever be a family again. It's been really stressful and it sucks! But all this drama isn't going to make me lose my focus. I believe things happen for a reason and getting this wls is going to be a fresh start to a new successful healthier life for myself and my daughter. I choose life! I'm praying that after surgery I no longer have to be insulin dependent and be able to keep up with my crazy four yr old and have just as much energy that she does.

I'm doing alright but Today was a tough day. I got into it with my husband who was threatening me about cutting me off our insurance so I can't get surgery. He's a spiteful jerk. Sorry for the TMI but it sucks having to deal with the crap. Anywho I wasn't able to find out my date because the one who schedules was out but I do find out on Nov 2 so I'm excited! I pray everything goes good with the insurance and I get approved for the end of dec. Did you get your surgery done yet?

Spiteful is right. Jerk is right. And I don't think he can do that. If he gets away with it, I hate to say it but state aid will cover it. My sister-in-law had the surgery AND PLASTIC SURGERY! all on the state welfare system. You don't need him, Crysky!

      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.
