June 27 - FREAKING OUT



Recommended Posts

Any other June 27 sleevers freaking the f out?? I didn't have to be on a special diet at all except for Clear liquids the day before surgery. I'm freaking out over everything. IV, maybe catheter, incisions, being naked, moving from the bed to the table, standing, putting pants on, putting undies on, doing anything.

At the gate. Waiting for the firing of the starter's pistol...!!

Then:

Off you go! :)

Try to relax. You've worked hard to get this far. Now let the your team do theirs.

There'll be plenty for you to do after your surgery.

For now? Rest, my friend.

You do this the same way you do anything new. One step at a time. You'll have a whole team supporting you in the hospital. Go with it and you'll be fine.

Why can't you have Protein supplements?

I'm up Monday too. I'm worried about all that stuff and a lot more. But I'm more worried about spending my life in this fat suit.

I agree!

Not sure why no Protein. They said clear liquid only

I haven't been overweight my whole life, so I literally feel like I've been wearing a fat suit for the past 10 years. I believe it's karma for making fun of overweight people when I was young and stupid. Never again!!

I'm the 28th of June, and your not alone.......Excited to get it over and done and my emotions are all over the place too..I'm very cranky from being on day 5 of my liquid diet, but I've lost 12 lbs....Cleaning house, etc. I'm more worried about taking my first sip after surgery than the surgery itself.

      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.
