March Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Day five of the liquid diet. It is doable, but I am hungry. Last night I dreamed of pizza! I am proud to say that I have not cheated yet, but this is a painful divorce from junk. I am constantly reminding myself why I am doing this and what I am looking forward to: energy to chase my children, feeling sexy with my husband, normal size cloths, and riding roller coasters.

Not freaking out yet' date=' but keep thinking that this time next week I'll be post-op!! I think you and I are the only ones that don't share a surgery date with someone else. We still maintain our"singleton" status.

Just curious- what state are you in?[/quote']

I started on page one of this thread, and I was surprised how many people had fallen off this list here and there. I'm so sorry. I don't know how that's happened, but I've tried my best to include EVERYONE, even those who don't have a date yet. So if you don't see your name let me know, if you have a date change, I'll change it on the list. No problem!

That's awesome news Roxy! HI to both of my surgery buddies!! Can you believe we are only 3 days away?? Making final arrangements, getting after surgery RX's, making sure there is food in the house for my daughter and thinking about packing today, after I do laundry. Somehow gained 1/2 pound this morning UGH and more UGH. Down about 15 total so far but really thought I would lose more after being so hungry everyday!!

Freaking out just a bit, silently like you all, not so much about the operation but afterwards...second guessing my decision but only because I keep thinking about no bread or pizza after the surgery *sadness*. As someone said its like divorcing or breaking up with your best friend! Trying to refocus, but hard since every other commercial on TV is about food!!

3 days! I have not been able to sleep as I am so nervous and I'm feeling more hungrier than ever! lol.

I think these 2 weeks have been the hardest, saying goodbye to cheeseburgers, fries, pizza etc. especially when your coworkers are eating it around you and if course tv commercials don't help either.

We can do this and we will have a great outcome!

How are our March 4 friends feeling? I pray for peace and calmed nerves as you enter this new phase. I look forward to celebrating with you when you are on the other side. I look forward to joining you.

Next Friday is my date- so far the only one on the 8th. From what I understand, gas pains seem to be the overwhelming complaint. I think I shall come armed with liquid simethicone!:-) For all of you that have had c-sections, understand the importance of the fart- becomes quite the party atmosphere as everything is back in working order!:-) So in an unusual wish for friends- I wish you many easy farts!!!!

      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.
