Anyone For October?



Recommended Posts

I am the 29th too. I go I'm the 23rd for pre op education class with nurse practitioner and from there to the hospital to register and so forth. I guess Wednesday the 24th will start a liquid diet.

YEA!! Someone I can relate to!! Nice that you don't need to start your liquid diet till the 23! I started mine this past Monday. Going good so far!! I'm so ready for this surgery, food is not even an issue right now. Don't even want anything other than my liquid. (lost 6# so far)

Where are you from? I'm in Northern Wisconsin.

Nice to meet you,

Dawn

My surgery date is October 23. It's like one minute I feel super-excited and the next minute I'm scared to death! What an emotional roller coaster!

      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.
