November 10th for Gastric Sleeve!



Recommended Posts

I started this journey back in August and can't believe it's already time for my surgery next week!

I've been on the pre-op full liquid diet for about a few days and it has been very difficult to resist temptation.

I'm supposed to be on the full liquids from nov3 till surgery date, so for seven days.

I had solid food the first day of the full liquids and felt so guilty. :(

I did better yesterday but I had quite the handful of crackers with my Soup at dinner.

I'm hoping the carb cravings will stop today. I weighed myself this morning and have gone from 257 to 254. Three pound down! I'm committed to stay motivated and stay away from temptations the rest of this journey. I don't want anything to stand in the way of my surgery next week!

Anyone else getting their gastric sleeve nov 10 next week? Share your journey with me!

Thanks :)

However I went a little crazy on food funerals and feeding binges that I gained weight and now I weighed in at my pre-op class at 256 ugh now I have to lose that 5 pounds are 6 pounds by Monday

      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.
