Feeling crappy...



Recommended Posts

Woke up yesterday not feeling so good, it'll pass I say. Well today is the day I've started my 2 week diet. 2 shakes and a Protien and veggie for supper or can do lunch.

I'm miserable, can't breathe runny stuffy nose, headache. I see the NUT for my last weigh in tomorrow, then the surgeon on Thursday! Please please please let this get better.

Anyone else get sick 2 weeks or sooner to their surgery date?

from one grammy to another ;)

sorry you are feeling so blahh :angry:

do the best you can with your pre-op

when you see your NUT soon - tell her you are sick (i'm sure she'll realize)

she "might" tell you to not worry that much about pre-op til you feel better

iif she tells you that you much proceed with pre-op

oh well :huh: gotta suck it up.......... :(;)

get plenty of rest/sleep - drink hot soup/tea - stay covered up with blanket

the cold will pass of course - its a matter of when??? :wacko:

i have seen people here that actually wake up a couple days before WLS that are sick

but as long as there is no fever, they are still good to go

feel better soon

good luck with upcoming WLS :)

speedy recovery

At my pre op testing, one week before surgery, I was told to call the hospital the day before If I was running a fever. You have a cold and two weeks to get over it. Drink tons of fluids and stay in bed. It should pass. All the best.

      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.
