Anyone having surgery in Oct ?



Recommended Posts

Got my surgery date - October 26. I wasn't expecting it so soon, but I'm ready! I'm doing a one week pre-op diet and then I'm good to go. I'm excited but overwhelmed. Just moved not too long ago so I gotta get everything around me in order before surgery!

I'm up for surgery on Monday as well, and I too have started to worry a little more about the surgery aspect, and if something were to go wrong, ect. That does make me nervous, but on the other had I'm so excited and ready to get this new life started! Last weekend I had a hiccup in my pre op diet, I ended up not eating (or should I say drinking) anything for two days, we lost one of our family dogs in a rural area, and he ended getting hit by a car, luckily the people took him in and he is better now. But the stress and worry really did me in, but then on Wednesday I was starving. I made it though but it wasn't the best circumstance. Here is hoping everything else goes smoothly.

Didn't mean to spam anyone or any group. I just enjoy hearing from others about their journey. I'll leave the group. Best wishes 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.
