Tomorrow is the day!



Recommended Posts

So, tomorrow morning I will be having my Gastric Sleeve surgery. I am feeling all sorts of emotions, which I think is normal. I almost started crying at the grocery store a few days ago because I couldn't have pretty much anything they had. I was ready to cancel my surgery and have a sandwich! I calmed myself down and got myself back on track. I am proud to say I did not have a sandwich, I have followed a liquid only diet FAITHFULLY for 10 days and have lost 13 pounds. I have a great support system, and am looking forward to being able to fit into clothes that are not plus sized! Oh, man...don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight!

Good luck! The first few days suck, but you'll bounce back quickly. I'm two weeks post-op today, and I get better every single day!

Good Luck Julie! Tomorrow is my day also. My surgery is at 1145 am. I am also very nervous, excited and ready to get this long journey started.

Prayers!

Hello everyone my sleeve date is November 28th and I'm scared as hell! Since I've been praying so long to be guided in the right direction and have decided to just give it to God and have stop worrying about it, does this mean I have no faith if I'm still worried after giving it to God? Sorry so long but I want to wish everyone good luck in their journey,

Good luck!! Keep us posted on how you're feeling!

I'm on liquid diet day 1 and had a hard time last night after "the last supper." Tears and everything, including doubting my decision. I keep telling myself... one day at a time...

      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.
