*update* soon to be sleeved



Recommended Posts

Here's my update, I had my labs done, my psychological evaluation, got a letter from my Dr recommending the sleeve, met with the surgeon and my insurance requires a 6 month supervised diet with the nutritionist, and I have to loose 5 more pounds, I just had my 4th month visit with the nutritionist and I have lost wieght, each visit, my last visit is the first Friday in August, I think it's the 8th or 9th, then I can submit to my insurance, the surgeon said since I continously lost wieght, I dont have to go on a liquid pre op diet, and the insurance usually approves within 2-4 weeks, he expects for me to have my surgery in September but could possibly be in August, im so anxious but nervous. Thank you for reading my update

      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.
