Thanx gixxergirl. Way too much to think about. And I got 2 little ones they keep throwing in my face. Think about them. Don't take the risk. I can't talk about it anymore.

You are thinking about them. You're doing this so you can be around for them.

I failed miserably and had a hunk of birthday cake. I'm regretting it. Horrible headache and nausea. If dumping is worse than this, I definitely don't want to eat sweets.

gixxergirl dont feel bad just get back on it. This pre op is not easy. My sons bday was yesterday and it was so hard not to have cake. I did like some icing on my hands. I did hear about that dumping so I get how you feel. We are almost there!!!

I never thought I would go the whole Rny route but at my hospital, they only do sleeves as a last resort. So if they got me on the table and something prevented them from moving my intestines then they would sleeve me. Idk why.

OMG we would NEVER kick you out!! I just got scared that there was something I didn't know about. I am really such a whiner but I'm getting scared more and more. I'm getting everything in order like I might DIE! Wrote my kids letters just in case. I need to snap out of this funk and get excited!

I was just joking. I didn't get scared until yesterday when my supervisor hugged me.

I actually have not gotten scared yet. It will probably hit Sunday night. I guess I have been trying to stay on track with this pre op and getting my boys ready for easter.

I'm postponing my surgery. I've lost decent weight on my own right now. I'm too scared to take this risk. I'm going to call my surgeon now. I really wish you girls the best of luck and success in your journeys. I'm gonna sneak on every once on a while to get an update. Maybe it will give me the courage I'm lacking. Good luck guys!!

      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.
