Did you have the Lapland before? My date is may 28th as well and right now all I can think about is what it will be like this week. Good luck! Oh and you are making the right choice because by doing this you are prolonging your life for your daughter.

Any tips I can help provide. Drink Water and produce urine. Make sure you get the urine in the catcher that is in the toilet. I just got home late last night from my Tuesday sleeve. Get up and walk around as much as possible. Shower as soon as possible. Bring some chapstick and Biotin dry mouth gum' date=' music and something comforting from home. I didn't need slippers, nor did I pack them. I used the booties they gave me. Know your allergies and be firm with the nursing staff. For example, I am allergic to cicillians, and I can only take sulfates (antibiotics) the anastheiaologist gave me a cicillian anyways. I was in an alergic reaction as I was exiting the operation area. I pulled out of it. Later on that night my nurse tried to give me some again, I told her no i'm allergic, she said "well you already had some" and I said "yes and I had an allergic reaction".. The lady put it through my IV anyways, it didn't take 5 minutes for allergic reaction to kick in. These nurses assume that hives and itching are the only symptom of an allergic reaction. Also, use your pain meds. I didn't, but it would have helped significantly. When I did use them, it was better. Keep ice on your manipulation site, that will be the most painful location of the 5 incisions. Even once you are home, keep ice on it. Also, expect nausea and vomitting the first day or two. Doctor said people who get nausea and vomitting lose the most weight. I had my surgery Tuesday at 8am. I am already down 11 lbs and that is not including inches. It is already very obvious that i've had weight loss.[/quote']

Thank u very much for your advice. Greatly appreciated!!!!

      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.
