The night before.....



Recommended Posts

So tomorrow 19:00hrs 9/13 is sleeve day.

Pre-op diet went well...lost around 20lbs in the two weeks. I'm motivated, I have had a word with myself and we agreed we are ready and excited about the future. No second thoughts.

However crapping myself with the magnitude of the next 24 hrs.

So this time tomorrow I will be post op and on my way to a better, healthier wardrobe... I mean life .

Thanks for the support from contributors here on the forum. Long may it continue. I look forward to sharing my before and afters at some stage ...!

See you on the other side.

Good Luck tomorrow!! I was in your shoes last Tuesday and had a bit of a freak out in the hospital. My surgeon had anesthesia pay me a visit per my request. They gave me some happy juice so my hour wait would be anxiety free. I Will be officially a week post op tomorrow and I am so happy I went through with it. Yes, even though I still have another full week of liquids. I can't wait for you to update us. I'm sending positive vibes your way!!

      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.
