Recommended Posts

I'm currently at my second to last appointment of pre op visits before I can submit to insurance and schedule a surgery date. Today I am daow 14.5 lbs in just 4 weeks that is a personal best for me. It's always been incredibly hard for me to loose weight and even harder to keep it off. I'm excited after this apointment I know that if I can do this pre surgery I can only imagine the success I'll have post surgery. I'm determined to keep this up for the rest of my life and looking forward to the new life ahead!

It is so exciting getting so close. I finished 3 of 3 appointments, all the surgeon requirements and they are now submitting for insurance approval. It is so difficult to be at the point there is literally NOTHING else I need to do, it is all in someone else's hands.

Good luck and keep us all posted

      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.
