Impatiently waiting...June sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Did all my pre-op testing this morning. Ultrasound, chest x-ray, ekg, and bloodwork. The ultrasound was so annoying, I had to keep taking huge breaths and holding it the entire time. Plus, ultrasounds just aren't much fun when there isn't a baby involved!

All I have left is my final weigh-in and the endoscopy! I'm so antsy!

Also, I'm down 22 lbs since starting my program. :)

I'm scheduled for June 1. Now that the date is close, I'm kinda terrified! Anyone else riding that roller coaster?

I am! My date is June 1st as well. I have my last meeting with my surgeon today and I have about a page long list of questions. I am probably over thinking this, but it is all I can focus on at the moment. I am so ready for this to happen!!!

Ok so I had my final visit with my surgeon today. He verified that I am all set for my June 1st date. They reviewed by blood work, nicotine test, and other tests and I am all set. I was so worried that something would change my date, Thankfully that didn't happen. Now I just have to wait 10 days!!!!

Very Excited! Just got my date, it's going to be June 3rd! Now it's just getting through the next 11 days. They scheduled my pre-op classes and physical for the Day before my surgery and my labs for 05/27/15. I just hope nothing weird happens to derail it. I'm ready to get this party started! :D

      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.
