How are you holding up Mrsdw206

 

Doing well. Just tired easily...I've been getting in 1 Protein Shake per day although I'm still on all Clear Liquids. It takes an entire day to get a full shake in. I still have trouble sleeping at night and I'm trying the couch tonight. I don't have any pain and can't wait to be back to feeling normal again. How about yourself??

I am ok, still counting down.. 93 days (or 3 full months) to go. :(

I was approved for a loan yesterday but after seeing that I will be paying so much in interest, I will just hold off and pay for it when I have the cash.

I am glad things are going so well! I only have a full week off then going back to work for 1/2 days for another week.

Hey folks. Kinda off topic but I'm working to schedule my surgery with Dr.Garcia in February. I have found out all I needed to make my decision. But I have one more question. Do I need a passport book or just a passport card? My coordinator mentioned something about just having my ID and birth certificate. How did you all get there? Because I have to pay for both me and my mom and that would end up being expensive.

Hi, I used my passport book , didn't bother paying more money for something the book does. Also there were 2 people with us on the way back that used their birth certificates and drivers license since they did not have a passport and there were no problems with that either.

      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.
