Calling May 31st Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I'm not on Facebook but I really do appreciate the support of this website. I've been jumping through hoops for several years for my sleeve and now that I am only 12 days away from surgery, I am so scared that the hunger and weakness in the pre op diet will cause me to abandon it. I knew that I was addicted to food, that I love food. I eat (ate) for thousands of reasons. Being hungry never factored into it. But now I am hungry, really hungry. Is this how it will feel after the sleeve operation?

Anyone else besides me getting sleeved on May 31st. I definitely need some people to stick together with while I go through this. I start my pre-opp diet (which is not nearly as awful as some of the ones I've heard about on here thank goodness!) on the 18th! I'm going out for Hibachi and Sushi the evening of the 17th which is my favorite just to enjoy it - not saying goodbye.. I'll have it again someday but it may be several months so I need to get a last crack at it :D

I'm June 6th, nervously excited...been thinking about it for a couple years, now it's down to 18 days. I'm happy to see others that are nervous as well....more big lifestyle changes continuing.

I'm June first - I have lost 15 lbs on the liver diet - one week left

I am surprised there is such variation between Drs . Mine is 2 weeks of Protein shakes (x 2) and one small dinner ( with more protein) .... Kinda wondering why I don't have to do Clear liquids day before

      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.
