Oct 1Was My Operation



Recommended Posts

Everyone is different . I just think you get what you put in to the sleeve. So I figure I try to do as much as I can safely while the motivation is still fresh. I know there may be a point that I might slack and get comfortable. But I'm trying to avoid that for as long as possible. So attack the fat with all you have. Lol

My surgery was October 1st too!! I go for a walk around the neighborhood about twice a week, about thirty mins or so... I was told 30 days after surgery I can begin light exercise. I am not back at work yet so I try and keep my self busy and NOT laid up in the bed all day. I cook, clean, and I try to move around as much as I can. I do get a little light headed when I over do it, but it seems to pass easily. I start soft foods on Monday :lol:, so I have been planning my meals out and doing some research on foods I will be able to eat and looking up recipes (I hate store bought or procesed foods, especially Soup, I've had enough, lol). Just trying to not get in the habit of laying around, doing nothing...

      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.
