Any November surgeries?



Recommended Posts

I am with you. My surgery is the 23rd and my pre-op diet begins on the 9th. Like you I feel elated and nervous all at the same time. We can do this!

November 11th is the date. I find that my broth tastes greasy, even the low fat kind. Not having any trouble getting liquids but want something not quite so sweet. Any suggestions?

My surgery date is November 10! I am super excited!!!! It's not coming fast enough ????☺️ I was nervous at first when I started my liquid diet. But being on it I have noticed that I'm not hungry at all. So I'm guessing that I was a mental thing! I just pray that the 10 gets here soon because the wait is driving me crazy ????????

Pre op visit done. Surgery set for the 11th and I can't wait. It's real now for sure. My small victory of the day: they were able to pull the shelf down completely on the front of the lab chair so I could rest my arm normally!!!

      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.
