October Buddies wanted



Recommended Posts

I was originally set for November but my apt with my surgeon got moved up to this Wednesday. The scheduler has me in for Oct 6th unless pre op testing reveals any unexpected difficulties. I am excited and I have been wanting an earlier date but now that I have it I am so nervous!

Hi. Nothing set in stone. But I have bought Protein Powder and have been working on different ideas. I am very fortunate that my good friend and her husband have both had the surgery. So they will be helping me out a lot. How about you?

I will be having surgery in Mid-October. I would love to have a buddy - I'm starting to get nervous, but I'm ready to get moving forward.

I'm scheduled for around the 22nd of October. Waiting on psy. evaluation.

Also is anyone else having problems with this mobile app. It keeps freezing up my phone. I have to shut the phone off.

      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.
