Surgery tomorrow! ANXIOUS



Recommended Posts

My flight leaves this morning at 5:30. I'm having surgery with dr. Fernando Garcia. :)

I've been up all night doing last minute things. I'm so anxious and nervous... Tried to lye down for a few but my eyes are wide open. I'm excited but very anxious. Wish me luck!!

I'll do my best to post my experience and keep those of you soon to be sleevers updated!

Thanks so much for all the kind wishes. I'm in the hotel room, surgery is tomorrow morning. So I'm hoping to be a sleeved girl by noon. I'm excited for my life to change! BTW the hotel is great so far! Very courteous and helpful staff, Rosie the coordinator was great, and Samuel the driver was super nice and welcoming. :)

      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.
