Tomorrow is my day Surgery at 10:00 a.m.



Recommended Posts

I am excited and nervous and just want to share with everyone. My surgery is in San Antonio Texas tomorrow morning. I have to be at the hospital at 7:00 so there will probably be some down time, but its about to happen. Please everyone put in a prayer for me! I am not a youngster so I really don't expect it to be easy. Just as long as I make it through it and lose some good weight I am happy.

Thanks ya'll for letting me yammer!

Prayers for you. I know you will not need them. I had my sleeve 2/9/16. At age 60 years young at the VA in PA. I'm eating puréed foods doing pretty good. Need to walk more and yes drink more looking forward hearing about how you are doing

So, I'm guess you don't want to hear what's on the menu at the Michelin Star restaurant downtown, right??? :) How's the fasting going?

You are SOOOO ready for this surgery, right? I know that feeling. No regret. No second thoughts. You just want to "get r don".

I'm turning on the "bum warmers" here on the Losers' Bench just for you!

Can't wait for you to join this crazy and nutsy gang here on BP!!! You'll fit right in! :)

Prayers going up for you!

Post as soon as you can, so we know to start mov'n over!!!

      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.
