Smiling all the way to Mexico



Recommended Posts

I asked to leave work about 15 minutes early today before something crazy happened or we got some crazy parent phone call (I work for a school system).They told me that I wasn't doing them any good anyway because I was so excited and to take my big smile and leave. All the lady's took me to lunch today(Salad with grilled chicken of course) it was sweet. They all also hugged me as I left and wished me good luck. I did leave with the biggest smile on my face and reality really sunk in that this was really happening. I started cleaning my house and packing as soon as I walked in my door today even know I don't fly out till Tuesday. I took Monday off so I could pack but its almost all done. I'm still smiling!!!!

      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.
