I just vomited emotions all over my husband



Recommended Posts

My surgery is scheduled for Monday morning. Up until the last few days I have been doing really well, but this evening my emotions and fears swelled up until they burst all over the place. I am finally settled down a bit, taking some deep breaths, and calming myself. I know I am exactly where I need to be. That doesn't mean I'm not scared.

Totally normal! I was TERRIFIED about a week before my surgery. Then I got in a good place and was ready for it! Then on the day of surgery while in OR prep I cried for about 5 minutes. Just had to get it out! All the fear and anxiety built up. Then they gave me a sedative and it was much better lol.

      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.
