Tijuana Roll Call - Surgeries Scheduled for Feb18th-Feb 23rd



Recommended Posts

Anyone else going to be at the Marriott sometime during the week Feb.17-25? Maybe we can plan nightly "meet-ups" and sit together while we sip our broth!!

My surgery is Thursday, Feb. 21st with Dr. Fernando Garcia.

JeniM73,

I'm so sorry to hear that you won't be at the Marriott! But we'll have lots of time to talk while we walk the halls at Mi Doctor.

Feb 18th-23rd Sleevers.... our time has come!!

Do you think we should set up a couple of "get-together" times now? Like maybe 12 noon lunch (broth), 3 pm happy hour (popsicle), and 6 pm dinner (broth)? Then..whoever feels up to joining us would know to meet in the lobby at that time. It's just a suggestion... if anyone has any other ideas for getting together while we are recovering (or...for that first day at the hotel before surgery), please let us know.

BTW... I asked Alma about other surgeries on Thursday and found out that there are a total of four for Dr. Garcia.

See you all very soon!

Martha

      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.
