MollyF22 62 Posted March 21, 2016 I am taking Flintstones chewables and B12 that is liquid form. You will lose weight on the pre op diet. It sucks! And is hard. Definitely go to your favorite restaurants if you have any and eat your food too. It sucks not having any real food. We will have it eventually though and the liquids is only temporary. Thank god lol. You will get back on track soon enough and it's gonna be okay. I'm sorry all of that happened to you. It's great that you have a surgery date and something to look forward too! I'm here for support too. I definitely regretted it afterwards just because I wanted something to eat. Not even the pain. The pain wasn't bad for me at least. Food is just the best and it's hard when you get it taken away from you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tssiemer1 549 Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Yeah. :-/ I mean it's just food. Why does it have such a hold on us? Edited March 22, 2016 by Tssiemer1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tssiemer1 549 Posted March 22, 2016 Another question. Are any of the appointments prior to surgery family friendly? My husband would like show his support and attend them with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MollyF22 62 Posted March 23, 2016 What appointments do you have left? Just the 2 classes n pre admission? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MollyF22 62 Posted March 24, 2016 I believe he can come to any of them. The nutrition class, a lady was with her mom. The 2nd class with Ivan, he talks to you one on one afterwards. The pre admission is just them taking blood n seeing what medicine your on n how healthy you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tssiemer1 549 Posted March 25, 2016 I'm pretty proud of myself. I got horrific news about 6:30 last night about the loss of a dear, sweet, wonderful person due to heroin. I don't know if you guys know this but I'm a social worker at a drug rehab in butler county. Anyway. I've been an emotional wreck but have not eaten since finding out. Normally I'd eat everything!! I'm still so devastated and a hot mess but at least I did not turn to food. I can't sleep either! But no food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MollyF22 62 Posted March 26, 2016 Tssiemer, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It's no fun losing someone we get close too at work. Drugs are horrible and people don't realize how dangerous they really are. It's taking over the world. It's sad. I hope you will be okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
