Recommended Posts

Home and settled in. Never knew how many damn food commercials there is on TV.

“Damn, I wish I had some of that!” or “Boggkk! Change the channel!”?

Day 7 Update (10/31/17) Happy Halloween!!

Had my first Post Op appointment with Surgeon yesterday..weighed in at 244! Down from 260, so that is 16 pounds lost. Nobody has really noticed, but that is ok. I am sure my mom will when she visits on Thanksgiving.

Doc has me on 3 Protein Shakes a day for the next two weeks until my next appointment which is Nov 13th.

Feeling good, NOT hungry at all which is a nice change. Taking my Water in one sip sip sip at a time.

So will post again soon.

Pretty good thanks! I had to get my BMI up to 35 so I had a shot at qualifying. My sleep test came back with mild sleep apnea so that is "good" too because I needed a co-morbidity. I have a 90 day waiting period and that'll be up mid-December. So, i'm looking at late Dec/early Jan hopefully!

      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.
