Tomorrow is the big day!OMG



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is the big day! Feeling excited, nervous, scared...the list goes on and on. I am ready for my metamorphosis and can not stop thinking about how much things will change for myself and my family. This is what I am looking forward to-

1. NO More CPAP! I hate that thing!

1.1- Being able to breathe better

2. Being in more control of my habits, giving up habits and having the sleeve as a tool to build healthier habits

3. Shopping in the regular section for clothing and not being forced to wear ugly prints because of my size

4. Wearing a swimsuit this summer

5. Having self-confidence

6. Living longer and more actively for my kids

7. Not being judged by my size (hopefully, I am sure this happens to everyone though :(

8. Starting on a fitness journey that will help me complete all of my goals

I want to thank everyone for their wisdom, support and friendship- You guys are amazing individuals:)

      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.
