Recommended Posts

Oh I don't mind it's part of it let me give u alittle back ground of me I'm 25 year old female and I has zero health issues I was just morbidly obese and terrified of getting diabetes since I'm a nursing student and that honestly scared the crap out of me. I has surgery on November 19th 2013 no complications other than typical gas pain but I walked my butt off in that Hospital BC all I wanted was to go home but that didn't happen I stayed 5 days in that hospital bc I couldn't get my fluids in. When I got home I couldn't drink ethier I had that god awful taste in my mouth and was nauseas all the time. I was hospitalized twice for dehydration I has the worst pain under my breasts all bc of dehydration! Finally I got the hang of the sip sip sip all Day everyday buty energy was low very low for months I introduced food in the 2.5 month and it all was a learning exspirence! All ANd all no regrets I was out of work for 3 months and even when I did return I wasent ready! Everyone's different and we all go through this process differently! My aunt whose 60 and 350 pounds with all the health problems in the world was back to work a week later and full of energy so we are all different'

Thank you for sharing!

      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.
