wellllll

you are either all set ready to have surgery - or you are in recovery!!!

welcome to sleeveland - you'll love the neighborhood :)

you might be a little groggy, teeny bit of pain, gas

but you did it!!!! - or almost ;)

you are officially on the road to a healthier, happier, longer life :)

make sure to walk as soon as possible to help with any gas issues you might have

continue to do this at home too

drink, sip very slowly - but constantly throughout the day

you might be tired when you get home

its important to rest when/if you need to

right now (later too) take special care of yourself

in the past - you might have come 2nd to others (family, kids)

now you are up front - take care of YOU

hope you have a support system - hubby/friend/relative that can help you

any little kids, bothering you, demanding????

tell them to play outside for one or two weeks :D

as far as your comment "thanx for listening"

what the heck do you think we are here for?? :lol:

for a manicure/pedicure??? ;)

(that will come in time )

we are here for you - JUST you!!!!

(and the other millions of people too ;) )

we love to ask, answer, help and support each other

thats why we get the big bucks :D

speedy recovery :)

kathy

      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.
