Surgery - December 27th!



Recommended Posts

So i'm having my surgery at St Vincent's Charity Hospital in Cleveland and I live an hour south of there in Canton. They are calling for 6-10 inches of snow between 7am tomorrow and 7am on Thursday! Crap! I hope they don't postpone my surgery due to weather. I mean we will leave 4 hours early if we have to but what if the surgeon gets snowed in?! I just feel with the way my luck is' date=' that something is going to keep this from happening on Thursday!! Lord please help me get through this and make it to post-op!![/quote']

I'll keep you in my prayers. Hoping the weather holds out for you.

I think Cna jobs kind of depend on where you're located. But they always need good ones in

SE OK especially in nursing homes.

Hi, not interfering or anything hunny but the body can only absorb 27grams of Protein in one sitting, so doubling up your powder isn't giving you extra Protein hunny. Xxx

I don't do it for the the extra protein. I do it for the taste sensation. Thanks for the info, though. Have you told the body-building community?

I don't have to be at the hospital until 12:30pm. The "prep" made me so sick! I was so nauseated and vomitted horribly. Hopefully this is not setting the way for things to come. See you all in a few days. Good luck to everyone!!

Lucky me, surgery has been way better than I anticipated. No nausea, taking liquids very easily, and walking. Did have some gas in my shoulder earlier and it sucked but luckily it's gone now.

I am also scheduled for Dec 27th. I am starting to get nervous a little. I feel like everything I have learned and prepared for is slipping out of my head and being blinded by nerves and excitement. All of a sudden I am like, oh my gosh - what do I do? LOL.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! Here is the a wonderful New Year!

hope it all went 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.
