I started a SECRET Facebook Group (closed, nobody can see you are there) For July 2015 people only. I hope this can expand as a individualized community so we can help each other out through the same stages of this journey. I hope you can join. (1) The only way to join is to send email invites, not a link. You will need to private-message me your email address, the one linked to your FaceBook profile. An email invitation for the FaceBook group will be sent to you.

I hope you are doing well, and hope to see you soon!

I'm having my surgery july 20th...is anyone else concern with having any complications. Just a little nervous

I am, but trying to not think like that. If anything thinking of everything that could go wrong makes me even more nervous.

I was worried about complications, really worried. I made myself calm down and I meditated on the way to the operating room. I woke up calm. I walked a lot, I went home in 24 hours. I feel great on day 5.

Positive thinking can help. Focus on the good things in the future not all the bad things that can happen.

Question: I had surgery today and have been eating ice chips without any issue. Could I be lucky or are the nausea meds going through my IV giving me false hope!

I am up early and anxious to get started my surgery is in 5 hours.  I know I have a rough patch  ahead but the resilience  I show post-op and the nutrition strategies it forces me to develop will be the foundation for my success.

Good health and good luck to all

NOW GET GOING!

I'm wide awake too ... I check in at hospital in 4.5 hours for surgery. Wanted to sleep a couple more hours to make morning go faster. Be well today and congrats!!

      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.
