I GOT MY DATE!(AUGUST )SURGERIES WHERE U @

I'm almost to the point of backing out!

I've had so many surgeries before. But this one is making me freak out. My husband did it 5 years ago and had the easiest time. I know lots of happy RNYers. I work with a lady who had it 14 years ago.

I know it will help with a lot of my health problems and am looking forward to that. But no one knows if it will help my gastroparesis, which is really why I'm doing it. My BMI is barely 39, and CW is 228. So, definitely have lots to lose. But this procedure is a last resort to help with my gastroparesis. Also, I'm self-pay, which really sucks. So much money- we had to take out a loan.

Why do you feel that way?

I've only had one surgery and that was a C-section and I was awake for that and I've never been put under before so that scares me and then I think about it being irreversible and that scares me! I guess the whole surgery I have alot of mixed feelings about it!

I'm SO ready for surgery already! Day 7 of my liquid diet, 7 to go. I'm struggling for sure. 1/2 way done though, I know I can do it! How are your preop diets going?

      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.
