I'm so excited!!!! Come see me when you get all your tests done Friday incase they kick me out to the hotel before you come back Saturday for your surgery. I will be the OTHER fat white girl ????. Just kiddin! I will text you a mug shot... I should probably take a pic when I wake up... It will probably be a more accurate description of what I will look like blasted out on post surgery pain meds.....half hanging out of a sexy surgery gown. (Note to self... Pack house coat)

You are going to do great! You deserve this and your beautiful babies will reap the life long benefits of a healthy happy mama! Prioritize you and your little chicks will line up and do the same.

PS... I'm writing letters to my herd too.

I'm getting stir crazy. I'm snowed in and even if I wasn't, I still don't have anywhere me to be since I've gotten everything taken care of.

Tick tock, tock tock......

Kids keep me pretty busy though, and they have another snow day tomorrow, so. They should go back Thursday and I'll have all day to chill with the two youngest kids and lay out their outfits for the week etc.

So excited.!

Me too! 2 days til I leave bit 3 until I'm sleeved.

Starting to get cold feet (ish) again though. I'm going but lord carry me because I'm getting scared. I want to mother my children ASAP. I don't want to be in the hospital for a long period of time or anything along those lines. I want to get sleeved, come home and be hunky dory.

Amytug,

I'm so excited for you...your time has come! You will do great. Just remember that the first few hours after surgery are tough, but it just keeps getting better and better. My surgery was less than a week ago and I am feeling great I'm sending good thoughts your way...

      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.
