Finally got a date! June 23rd!



Recommended Posts

Since November I've been on this journey doing everything I needed to, ran into some complications with my health that delayed my surgery but now finally got a surgery date for June 23rd! And I'm excited and nervous at the same time but also relieved that the day is finally coming! Now all I need to do is sign consent and go to a pre op appt. meet with anesthesiologist and I'm good to go! Wish me luck friends!

Sure thing! Today is the first day of my liquid diet because they moved my surgery date up while I was on vacation and said just to wait until I got back to start.

I'm also still waiting on my shakes to be delivered because I didn't think I'd need them 'til the 16th, lol.

I'm sad that I won't have the ability to connect until I come home as I don't have an I phone.

Going to stay with a friend on Wed when I get discharged from the hospital.

They don't want me to stay alone here.

      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.
