Last Day



Recommended Posts

Well it's my last day of having solid foods before surgery ( even tho I've been drinking Protein Shakes mostly ) now I don't have that option will be rough, I know I'm only on it for two days of Clear Liquids before my sleeve date the 19th of June, I know other done it but it will be rough, I bought over a 100 sugar free pop cycles and have chicken broth with all different type of crystal lite.. I just have to try to keep busy, what make it tough for me is if I could do this diet I wouldn't of weighed over 400 lbs, I'm at 398 now but it's all Water loss.. Well I hope everyone is doing good and being cheerful. Someone on here said focus on your depression , I say heck with that get up and get out and keep busy, go out in public don't be a hermit... Peace

Awesome attitude..Stick with it. The next few weeks will certainly be a challenge, but hang it there. Nothing worthwhile is ever easy. DO NOT focus on the negatives. They will all pass quickly. It is very easy to wallow in the pain and feelings of loss, but that is only temporary. I can tell you that at 7 months, I rarely even think about having VSG. I live an active, normal life (well as normal as a whack job like me can live), just a bunch of pounds lighter. Consider the next few weeks as an investment in remaking yourself in to the most healthiest individual you can. Get up and get moving just as soon as you can. Even if you have to push a little bit. The sooner you get on with living the better off you are going to be. Congratulations, I know that you are going to be just great!

Thank you very much for the tips, I can not lay in bed unless I'm sleeping so I will be walking the halls as soon as I awake from surgery and able to stand, this person loves the term COWBOY UP it was our battle cry when I served in the Army and that training will help give me the motivation. Congratulations on your weight loss and your support ... Peace my friend

      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.
