Recommended Posts

I'm Krystyne, 28, mother of 2 and I have a step daughter. I don't have my surgery date yet. I just started this process but have almost everything I need so they can submit it to my insurance.

Hey welcome! And good luck on the journey. Did you have to do supervised weight management?

Yes I've had 8 within the last year and I only needed 3 and all testing has also been done. Pretty much I just need to have the meetings at the hospital and meet my surgeon

That's weird. I just had to go to my GP and get a referral and then see the surgeon and then booked it that day. Had to see the dietician once. Surgery is 2 weeks away! Eeeek!! ????

Hi Mommas! I am 26 and a mother of 2. (2 yr old and 10 month old) I am getting sleeved in February and and nervous about the down time after. I don't have a lot of help and would like to know how long was it before you could take care of your babies? What could you do, and what , could you not do. I am hoping my mom can help some, but she loves far. My husband won't be able to take off work for long. Any insight os appreciated! Thanks :)

      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.
