Ryan, best wishes on your surgery 11/16



Recommended Posts

Ryan, I am so excited for you. You have worked so hard and jumped through so many hoops to get to this day before your surgery. I hope you can take all the best wishes and love that we all have for you with you into the surgery. I will be praying for a safe, smooth surgery and aftercare. Please post and let us know how you are as soon as you feel up to it. You are such a gifted and remarkable man. You deserve this opportunity to get the tool to help you soar with the eagles (not to mention buy smaller sized leathers for your motorcycle adventures in your future). Hold you head high, smile bright, and let the healing begin. Write to me band brother and let me know how you are. Blessing and hugs, Theresa Marie

Thanks guys. I'm taking this day easy, well kind of. There's a thread about laxatives around here somewhere. I'm doing a little dashing around, lol.

Gotta shave the legs yet, gotta pack my Hulk underoos. I'm ready, I'll post later tonight, and see you all when I get back home.

      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.
