Just booked my flight!



Recommended Posts

I just booked my flight for my March 8th surgery in Cancun. I am literally shaking because I am so excited and overwhelmed right now. It's so crazy to think that in only six weeks, the one thing I've struggled with my entire life will no longer rule me...I'm finally going to have the tool I need to rule it. I have a long way to go...but I'm ready for this journey.

You're going to be so THRILLED when you start losing! I'm 3 lbs from goal and am ecstatic. So glad I was sleeved Aug. 28th 2012!

Congrats on nearing your goal, Slo! If you don't mind my asking, how much have you lost since you were sleeved? I am so excited I can't stand it. I am really looking forward to be able to live a more active lifestyle and just be more healthy all-around. Of course, I'm not gonna lie, it's also going to be an amazing feeling going into a clothing store and being able to buy whatever the heck I want instead of settling for whatever happens to fit. I know it's going to be a tough road, but a fun one too. :)

      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.
