Surgery tomorrow and I need to vent



Recommended Posts

I'm having surgery in the am. I asked my mom to help me a few weeks ago. On Friday she decides to tell me she can't,no reason she just can't. So I find other means for my roses and for my dogs. Tonight one of my friends watching my dogs, after only having my 18wk old puppy for 2hrs, messagese bitching about how often the dog goes to the bathroom. So now I have to find someone to watch my dog between now and 8am tomorrow morning because the same friend wants to drop me off 2hrs early in case of traffic. FML

Damn, that's terrible. I can't stand people like that. I hope you can find someone reliable to help you out. Maybe a neighbor? Keep us posted, please. And good luck tomorrow!

Good things are happening!!!! Sometimes when I feel like this (although it's VERY hard to do) I just laugh and tell the devil he's not stealing my victory over food, my joy in life, the love that I have, or my surgery blessing that I KNOW God had a hand in. You are ready to do a GREAT thing for yourself and it seems like someone's trying to interfere with that (he don't want you happy of course) and wants to deter you from a good thing and make you throw in the towel for tomorrow. No matter what you do, mad as you are, tell him out loud that his interference will not work with you ...ever! Just my own personal opinion of course. He loves us being confused and mad about things. Best of luck tomorrow and please keep us posted. We all really do care.

That's terrible! If you were in southern CA, I would babysit your puppy in a heartbeat. I LOVE dogs. Hang in there. And maybe start looking for nicer friends when you're feeling better! Your mom I have no suggestions for other than to inform her she won't come close to qualifying for mom of the year 2016.

      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.
