why do i still feel so sad.



Recommended Posts

why do I still feel this way, I feel sad, confused I come and read the post and pm some of you'll and feel better for that time, and then I start thinking of everything and I feel I don't know anything about the surgery, I have a guide book I read over and over and still feel like I don't know anything, I don't see my nut or my psych until after surgery and im waiting to find out if insurance will pay for it. so I have been buying Vitamins, Protein power and things like that for the first stage which I think its high protein full liquids after the hosp. i guess for two wks then soft and moist protein and what i had in the first stage.

im just not sure i got this right.

i have pm some of u and i want to say thanks, it does make me feel better but then the same feeling comes back. wonder why ?

i went out and bought vitamins, protein power, boxes of jell o and i have no surgery date, im just waiting to see if the insurance company will pay for it.

i just sit here reading all the post and my pms. and just thinking about it all day long and what i have to do or what i cant do.

ps. since my psych and nut clear me i been eating more and doing less shakes, i was told to stay the same, don't lose or gain, but i been eating more. now im afraid what if i gain weight by the time they call me in for pre op or what ever they do when the insurance says yes that they will pay for the surgery

Nancy, sounds like you need to get out and do a little walking and get some fresh air. It will make you feel better. Don't stress over this process, save your energy for positive behavior that makes positive changes in your life. You will be fine.

      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.
