I must be insane......



Recommended Posts

I am on day two of my pre-op diet, and am doing ok. But it must be making me insane. My surgery will be on Aug 20, and this weekend we decided that we are moving!!! Yes, I know it is kind of sudden, but it is something we have been thinking about for awhile now. We found a house we like and in the area we were looking.....and have decided now is as good a time as any......in spite of my surgery in two weeks!!!

I am insane I think........

I think it will be a great distraction to have the house to think about! Good for you! These things tend to work out the way they are supposed to - sounds like the right house showed up! Congratulations! (PS. I moved two weeks ago and my surgery is in 2 weeks - it worked out perfectly...totally motivated me to get stuff put away!!)

Aside from the distraction it should provide you with extra exercise and maybe better pre surgery weight loss.

GREAT!!!! Home from the hosptial...walked twice, hit the grocery store, showered, dressing change, POOPED!!, fresh jammies on and planning on sipping my way through the evening shows. Tolerating my family eating spaghetti that is starting to smell a little good, but not hungry, so I"m not worried.

How bout you?

      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.
