VLOGS! Do you have one, Duodenal Switchers?



Recommended Posts

Hi All, I am asking all the DS/MDS/SIPS folk who have video blogs or vlogs to post a link here. There are a lot of vertical sleeves coming up on youtube, but as you know, we have slightly different issues, smells, Vitamins, etc, to deal with. I would think, if you have a favorite vloger already, who isn't on this forum, you could link their page, too. Please only do Duodenal Switches, Modified DS or the SIPS on this thread.

follow this format, if you don't mind, so people can be picky, if they want, and watch the vlogs with the same procedures, but I would recommend watching everyones.

Name: DuodenalSwitchMan

Procedure: Duodenal Switch, but with 3 meter common channel, like a SIPS.

Surgery: Nov. 7, 2016

And, you. Yes, you, there. Vlogging is actually therapeutic. There is no gift like giving!!!

There are a few more that I follow, I'll keep an eye on this thread and if I don't see them I'll share. Or you can look and see who I'm subscribed to.

I don't have a VLog; however, I do have a journal I kept for many years. It runs from 2005-2014.

Being in theatre, at some point, sharing.. not for fame or money, but for strength, empathy, knowledge and inslpiration, might bubble up enough that you do something with it....really fantastic projects to to do: 1. Publish it as a a pdf book file. 2. Read it and release it as an audio file. 2. Video record yourself reading it. 3. Have a college student perform it as a monologue live or just video someone else reading it. That is 11 years of invaluable emotions, feelings, and information to share!!! Just to put a bee in your bonnet, I would read it as an audio file, but it would be best if a woman read it, but I would do it: ).

Thank you!! Couraggio!

Mille grazie to those who have posted their VLOG links so far!!

Nice. I will vlog. Just trying to get the courage up. I have a question, though. Your sound quality is really good. Do you use some type of microphone?

      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.
