Well done to chrisredjeep!



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to post to say a huge well done and congratulations to Chris on your one year anniversary. Chris had her surgery a month before me and has been the most amazing companion on this journey. I really couldn't have done it without you. I don't think either of us can quite believe just how much we have lost. My surgeon said he thought I would get down to about 13 stone, but I am now 10st 13lb and wearing size 10 tops and 12 trousers/skirts.

I hope you have a great day Chris and look forward to keeping in touch while we both maintain. If anyone has doubts about this surgery I would say it has completely transformed my life. I was just existing before but now I am truly living life to the full!

      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.
