Hello to everyone. Surgery January 2nd.



Recommended Posts

Hello to everyone, I hope that your journeys are going smoothly. I am scheduled to get my sleeve on January 2nd and am so excited! I had my EGD yesterday and it all went smoothly, In fact I don't remember a thing about the procedure itself. I also had an Echocardiogram, pulmonary tests and a stress test yesterday too. I guess that all that is left is to start this new journey and get on to my new lifestyle!

I wish you all the best of luck and can't wait to get to know you all better!

Congratulations on your jan. 2 surgery date. I wish mine was that date. But my first dr.'s visit is not until jan 15 so I don't think I'll be having the surgery before the month is up, but I'm still hoping. :P But since I'll have to do a 2 week liquid fast right before the surgery I don't know if that will be enough time, I just want to get mine done & over with...keep us posted on your weight loss progress!! :lol:

      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.
