One week and counting



Recommended Posts

A week from now i'll see my new surgeon and get restarted on my journey. I am excited to see what he has to say and see the nut as well, and hopefully i'll be back on track in no time.

also ordered Slim in 6 today from Beachbody because i haven't exercised in quite some time and i can do this at home.

Got all my Soups etc ordered from bariatriceating.com, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury proteink, and i'm READY to re-tackle this demon!

wish me some luck!!!

saw the doc today. he couldn't offer me much as far as getting back on track other than a prescription for appetite suppressant which i'm not too keen on. Then the nut couldn't see me after all, so they want me to go back. I decided I'm going to see my original surgeon and nut in a couple weeks. i'll have to pay out of network for it but i really just need them to look at my original files/info/stats and give me some SPECIFICS to get this back on track. I see the nut first, then the surgeon like 8 weeks later. hopefully the nut will give me good info.

in the meantime i'm going to attempt a 5 day pouch reset again (fizzled out after day 2 last time and the first two days are the worst!).

      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.
