Surgery can't happen fast enough!



Recommended Posts

The girl that dog sits for us came over today to drop of my house key and so I could pay her for watching my dogs this past weekend. As we were chatting she says, "Oh I didn't know you were expecting another little one!" UGG I'm not sure who was more humiliated her or me. I sat there and reassured her that it was no big deal. But then as soon as I walked her out, the tears just started pouring. Can't wait to have my appointment on Wednesday and hopefully set my surgery date!!!!!

I know exactly how you feel! I have had that happen before! It's extremely embarrassing for both sides. I am so ready to have this surgery! I hope yours comes quickly! We will be on the losers side very soon!!!! :)

And to add insult to injury, she continued to say she saw another lady that told her she was 4 months pregnant. But she couldn't even tell because she was so fit. Lol ummmm so not the right thing to say at that moment.

      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.
