Sleeve Scheduled For Tuesday November 6



Recommended Posts

I found out today that I am a GO for Tuesday November 6th at 7:15am...I am so excited, scared, worried and all at once. Very overwhelming all these feeling and trying to get everything organized for the time away from my 4 children and husband. My youngest child is Autistic not really sure how to explain this all to him..he is 7.

I am on tue too! The most stressful part for me is worrying about my 3 kids while I will be away. Hopefully everything will work out for us! Good luck with your surgery!

i worry about my babies too. i have a 22 mth old and a 10 month old so i'm a nervous wreck about this. i've decided to write a letter to my boys and husband just in case something happens so that i know they will have something physical from me telling them i love them and what my dreams a for them..this gives me a sense of peace..other than that I just know that i'm going to miss them the 2-3 days i'll be away...my surgery is the 8th so just 2 days after u....good luck with the surgery and hopefully the children will understand and not have too hard of a time when your away.

Me to Jen! I have a 22 Month old and 11 month old. Girls. I'm scared about leaving them. I also have older kiddos... But I worry more about being away from the little ones. Ya know, since they require so much care. When I had lapband in 2006 I wrote a letter to my kids too. Your going to be fine. When is your date again?? I'm 11/22

      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.
