calling all December 2016 sleevers!



Recommended Posts

I'm a newbie here. My name is Kathy. I saw my Bariatric surgeon last week. All my tests, evals & consults are set up and classes...the last class is the 1st week of January. I am 61, 5'7" & weigh 280 lbs. I have multiple health problems. I've had back & cervical surgeries and now my knees are bad and my ortho surgeon said he's hopes my knees will hold out a little longer. I also have high b/p. I'm nervous but excited listening to every give their surgery dates. Wishing everyone luck with their surgery. Can't wait till its my turn. Hoping sometime in January or February 2017.

For anyone interested, I made a Holiday 2016 (November / December surgeries)- VSG group for FB. I was really excited to see that I will be sharing a surgery date with so many on 12/12... makes me feel less alone.

      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.
