I'm officially a Loser!



Recommended Posts

Today at 11:15 am I went into the OR. I really don't feel that bad other than the gas pain, but they have been pretty regular with the pain meds. I have managed 2 walks already, but I'm going to rest the rest of evening. So glad to be a loser!

So happy for you. You are in for a great healthy life style...but hand on girl because you will have so many changes in your life. You will be dropping weight and clothes sizes and people will be complementing you like crazy. Someone asked me the other day if I ever got tired of people telling me how good I looked now.... I thought for a mil-i-second and said no...I love it and it only reinforces my commitment to this life style. You are going to sooo love your pretty new self. Good luck to you.

Congrats to you and continue with your success. I too had surgery yesterday 9/23/14. I haven't walked yet but that is the plan this morning. The pain was really bad for me at first but when I gained control of the meds, it has gotten better. So save my place on the losers bench please, cause here I come!

      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.
