January 3rd Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

Oh another thing I had found it hard to get my 64oz of liquid by just sipping but u gotta do it.... make sure you get your 60-80g of Protein... thats something I'm struggling with now but I just ordered me some Protein shakes

I'm already taking protein. Puritans pride is cool. Buy one and get 2 free deals. Saves a lot of money

I had the ds sept 13th! Honestly the best thing ive ever done! My best advice is WALK! Slow nd steady. Moving will help with the pain although its hard at first! I would say after week 1 things start getting easier! Im almost 3 mnths post op and very happy!

My plan says 1000 deductible. I'll find out on the 22nd when I go for my preop. A lot of plans in cali don't cover it. I got lucky my boss who's the project manager helped me transfer to a union site with better healthcare. She believes this surgery will help me and has been very supportive since I been wanting this

Good luck to you!!! At my pre-op, which was yesterday actually, I met with the admitting people at the hospital and had an EKG and some bloodwork. I don't have Kaiser, and i've never been to the hospital where my surgery will be at, so i was soooo lost. Hahahha. Thankful that everyone there was helpful in directing me around!

      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.
