February Sleevers -- Let's Do This Together



Recommended Posts

Starting my liquid diet today. I technically don't have to start until Monday but wanted to start over the weekend in case I have any headaches. I'm a teacher and there's no way I can deal with the kids and a headache!

@waitingonthenewme - that's what i hear is the worst.... i've never been so excited to pass gas. Especially since that's the best way to relieve the pain! HAHAHA....

Yes ma'am. It is almost worse than labor contractions. I am not trying to scary anyone away. I am very sensitive to medicine therefore, I opted out of the Dilaudid and felt and feel alot of pain. In addition, I am super nauseated and only able to sip a few ounces. Some of this is to be expected and everyone handles pain different so please don't take this the wrong way. I know I did this to better my health! On a good note, I am not hungry ?

      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.
