December Surgeries?



Recommended Posts

Yeah, that's it Nena...and though most are not meant to be rude or degrading, they simply don't know all that is entailed. I have one male co-worker ( we get along and laugh and have fun) but he is Paleo, and he swears by it..he truly believes that larger people are all lazy and over eat...and that is not it for all. He is simply the type that rags on anyone and anything that does not conform to his way of life. But for me, the people that really matter to me know, and are all excited...they have seen and lived through my struggles...and they are all that I care about.

My date is December 26th.

I have been approved without seeing a nut, but I am seeing one tomorrow just to help prepare myself. I'm a person that likes to plan everything and its hard for me to feel like there are so many unknowns. I want to have everything on hand at home before surgery because it won't be possible to drive myself to get what I need afterward.

Don't let it discourage you. You are going to do great whenever you get your surgery. Don't know how they missed that at your Dr.tho. Is ur surgery still going to be in December?

      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.
