Recommended Posts

Tomorrow at 7:30 AM my life will change forever. We have to be at the hospital at 5:45 AM ugh! It's an hour drive to get there so itcwoll e early to bed for me if I can get any sleep at all. So far the clear liquid diet today isn't bad at all but...........

In about 6 minutes I get to have some real fun with the bowel prep. Oh my!

Good luck to all you March sleevers I hope that you surgery goes well as I do mine. I'm a wreck today! I can't imagine getting any sleep at all.

I made it through. Only problem is keeping stuff even ice down. They're thinking it's the hernia Surgery

      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.
