Recommended Posts

Feeling very anxious, and all I want to do is eat! I am heavy because of many different reasons health, bad eating habits and genetics. But I have never been a big eater and ate all day. Sometimes I can eat one meal a day and be good. But since I know I have to do the preop diet all I can do is think about food and eating. Uugghh ????

I felt that way before today. I was so nervous. But today went good. Three days early. But I'm going to eat tomorrow night for my son's birthday dinner. We are going out and we never do that. So I just have to keep reminding myself just to have a little instead of the whole entire schebang like I normally would do. It's unbelievable how much I can eat. My stomach honestly has to be huge. I've always been that way. So maybe tomorrow will be different for you too!

I think the eating once a day is another thing that ruined my metabolism.

I agree it's not good to eat one meal a day. My family wants to go have dinner on Friday before I start my preop diet and I am not sure if I want to go because I don't want to over eat.

January 13th here. Started my pre op today. It's going ok but I feel hungry. Water helps so far. So excited but scared too. This is gonna change my life in so many ways and I'm nervous to see what that will be.

I am getting sleeved on Jan 15 in MX. Who is everyone going through for their surgery? I am using Dr Ortiz with A Lighter Me and traveling alone. Pretty nervous about going alone, but it seems everyone becomes friends once they meet in MX so I am very hopeful with that. Sleeve buddies need to stick together lol.

We're going to have to keep in touch thru the rest of the pre op and then whenever we can, post op :)

How's everyone doing on their pre-op diet? I've made it through 3 days! It's not terrible, but it's not my favorite thing, either. :)

liquid diet, started a few days early, but last night I had a few bites of low carb food at a dinner party to keep from drawing attention. Man I can't do that it gives me all kinds of head hunger. I'm am all our nothin kinda girl. Anyway I have no more parties or dinners to go to before surgery so that's good.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
