March 1st Scheduled



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone :)

Newbie here. Been pushing for WLS for over 2 years and just got my surgery date yesterday! March 14th! I am so excited. Been overweight my whole life, and I'm so looking forward to positive change. Especially since my health problems have steadily been stacking up over the last few years.

I wanted mine to be on St Patrick's day (March 17th) but it won't be possible. It will be March 22, which is good too.

Can't wait!

I'm scheduled for March 9 th. Start my ten day pre-op liquid diet on Saturday & I'm ready. I have good support because my brother-in-law is two years post and my sister-in-law 6 months post. I agree with everyone here, excited and nervous. Everyone says that is normal. Glad I found this site.

I originally was scheduled for Jan 26th but couldn't get my cardiologist to sign my release for that day so now I am scheduled for March 1st. I will just be glad to get it over with and start the process. I am not getting any younger. I am a senior at 62 and I want to enjoy some thinner years.

I'm scheduled for March 8th so excited that after 9 long months it's almost here

      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.
