July 22 RNY Buddy needed



Recommended Posts

First couple of days weren't too bad for me, but the kitchen has started calling me at night :-(. I've been going to bed early to get out of the midnight snack attack.

Started my pre op diet yesterday. It's a lot more difficult than I anticipated. My nutritionist says that's it gets easier after the 3 or 4 day mark ?!

Where did the CUTE 'body weight ticker' come from?

I finally have my final appointments scheduled. Next week is one on one, lab work, EKG July 15th, medical clearance July 22nd and then a 2week wait for surgery. Ekkk!

Me too! I also brush my teeth when I start feeling "snacky". It seems to help .

Hey Shauntell I'll be your buddy! I'm a 33 yo female having an RNY on the 20 of July! I live in Texas and it's super hot here!

Hopefully I can make the large facility fee before then but I'm sure I will. I'm super nervous! I just had my preop appt today and the doctor reassured me I'm doing the right thing with RNY. So I'm getting my last minute things together. I hear you are so tired after. But I'm trying to go back to work 3 days out. I do desk work for the moment. Doctor said I will be fine just feel tired. I'll be here for you!

And if any out there is with a surgery date around July 20th, let's buddy up! . Lots of luck and best wishes to everyone!

      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.
