Calling January Sleever????



Recommended Posts

So today is my first day on my official preop diet it is going just fine although I thought I was tired before oh man I'm really tired now. I feel like someone put a sleeping pill in everything I drink. I think it is kinda due to lack of carbs but I will get through it and just deal. I hope you ladies are having an easier time then me about it. 3 wks and one day til surgery ugh hurry up December!

I'm on day three!! Doing well. Sleeping so good at night and not too tired otherwise. Down 4lbs from Friday!! That's all the encouragement i need to stay strong and keep going. :) 19 days until surgery!!

I got a call from the coordinator and she submitted my paper work in yesterday for a January date. Wish me luck and a prayer my way. :D :rolleyes: B)

I got a voice message this past Thursday that I got approved!! Called in Friday and the coordinator was out of the office for the day. So I get to call tomorrow to set a date, and the awesome part is tomorrow is my birthday. What a great gift! :D

My surgery date is Jan 8th and I start my liquid diet on Jan 1st. Was hoping to squeeze surgery in December for insurance purposes but really happy + excited the timing has been working out the way it has. I think I'm close to finalizing my shopping list for post-surgery supplies and plan to shop this weekend as I know going to the grocery store while on a liquid diet will be treacherous conditions for me!!

      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.
