Highschool reunion tonight



Recommended Posts

No one knows about my surgery- even the friends I still talk to on a regular basis from high school who will be there tonight. I'm almost 2 weeks post op which means- no drinking and none of the food served there. Guess I will be sneaky and order my usual drink without the vodka (water and lime with a splash of cranberry). What's the hardest social situation you had to go through post op without letting on to surgery?

Shiner - my 20 year HS reunion is tonight too - but I have no desire to go. I was sleeved on June 10. You don't happen to be from KY, do you?

I just though - wow - if that's someone from my HS reunion who had surgery at about the same time as me- wow!

Anyway, good luck tonight. I'm sure it will go well. Maybe whatever is served won't be things that are yummy to you, anyway!

I never did go to any of my high school reunions. I never did like those people the first time around anyway. Ironic....I was painfully and unhealthy thin back then and they made fun of my skininess. Oh well. Hopefully you can go and enjoy some good memories while keeping your new little secret close to the vest.

      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.
