December 3Rd My Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

This is my first time on here & posting. I recall a post of someone else having surgery on Dec 3rd, but couldn't find it. Monday is my big day! I'm not nervous at all, just ready to embark on a new life. The most exciting part is becoming a new me. Good luck to all the sleevers. I must return to share my post surgery experience.

Hey My Relief:

My surgery date is Dec. 3rd also!! I'm not nervous at all either; I'm the first surgery of the morning (7:00 a.m.) with my surgeon and I am just ready to get'er done!! Gonna spend my Sunday putting up the Christmas tree with my hubby and kids, do some laundry and help the family prepare for my two night absence here at home. Will soon be packing a light bag for my hospital-hotel stay! LOL :D Best of the best to you in your surgery and recovery.

Hi there

Posting from Sydney Australia. I too am getting the sleeve on Monday 3 December. I recently had the gastric balloon removed and lost 32 kilos however this time around i found it extremely difficult to follow the VLCD diet properly however I do believe from losing that amount of weight doctor shouldn't have problems in getting through to the stomach. Your advice?

      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.
