Impatiently waiting...June sleevers?



Recommended Posts

My insurance requires 12 weeks of classes, so I'll be done on May 19th, but I plan to hold off until either the end of June or beginning of July for surgery(that is if I still decide to do it!). Waiting for me has to do with work. July is a slower month for me.

I was very impatient until I started classes last week. Now I'm very excited to learn all of the medical info that they have to give.

Mine is June 2, and I'm nervous about whether I'm doing the right thing and excited too. Bleachie- are you on fb?? I'm waiting for school to get out too.

My psyc evaluation isn't until the day of my surgery at hospital angeles in Tijuana with Corvala. My surgery is june 29 as that is the best time of year for me to get time off work.

Eeeeekkkkkk! It is getting closer :) Yay!

Just checking in. I have my 4th NUT appt on Monday, and expect to be down about 20 lbs from when I started. We'll see. Halfway through this supervised plan - Mar/Apr/May and I'm ready to go! Getting excited!

I made myself take a couple of days off from the computer..lol... I was so excited to get on line today and see the progress everyone is making. I think we have made it to "hump day" in the pre op process. :) I think things will really start moving from here.

I pick up my CPAP tomorrow and go for pre op visit #4 next week. I am so glad you are all doing well!

I have to think positively!! Glad to hear from everybody else!

My date is June 15th! I am a teacher so I scheduled my surgery for the first Monday we are out so I have to summer to recovery. I am grateful for this extra time to really think about the decision I am making and research and prepare myself for the all the major changes that are going to be taking place in a few short months.

On a side note, we got an invite to a wedding the Dominican Republic in November. For the first time in my life I am not freaking out about wearing a bathing suit around a bunch of people who like just they did when we were in high school because I will be thinner! Woohoo! So excited !

      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.
