Looking For Dec Sleevers Out There



Recommended Posts

Oh man, you have the best list ever! Like you just plucked it from my brain!!!!

I'm 1 week from starting my pre op diet. Kinda nervous about it....nervous ill be grouchy and short tempered and low on energy.... I'm a teacher so I worry about the way it will effect things... However, my weight also drastically effects my teaching as well, so. Game on!! LOL.

I'm on day 4 of the pre-op now and things are finally beginning to feel kind of normal again. The first 2 days were kind of rough. The no caffeine was the worst and I just made sure I took advil. The trick is to just take it one day at a time and find other stuff to do. I've been cleaning alot. In those first few days, I was definitely bitchy but that is slightly better now. Take your vitamin...it does help.

History & preop class 9AM tomorrow.

Contemplating doing my own 2wk diet or perhaps just 1wk of liquid. Not sure but ready to see 12.10.12 I have my EGD 12.7.12.

F.Y.I. I'm tracking everything on my fitnesspal.com it has been helpful. I'm APerfert10Again, you can add me if you like. I find that it helps hold me accountable.

Good luck...Wish everybody well!

      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.
