ANY APRIL SURGERIES?....



Recommended Posts

April 24th is the day! I am suddenly nervous......I was fine until this evening, now I am like....what the am I doing! Questioning myself now.

I did that. Then I said, has anything else worked for the past 30 years? No. Have you done adequate research on this subject? Yes. Do your physicians support this decision? Yes. Then, trust yourself. The person who brought you this far obviously has done her homework. Trust her.

I made peace that way and now I want to hug her for bringing me to this. I have a new birthday. April 17th! Thanks, PBCN

April 9th. I don't think I'm going to fully do the stage three yet until I reach my liquid goal. Fluids is 2-3 wks and the nut advanced me and the doctor who assisted with surgery advanced me but I remember the surgeon telling me while I was doped up on drugs that I had scar tissue from band and he wanted me to do fluids the full three weeks.

      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.
