December Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

I’m scheduled for my bypass on December 4th. Is anyone else having their surgery in December? I’m nervous but excited!

We have the same date!! I'm so nervous yet super excited. I can't believe after all this time it's finally happening! The 4th cannot get here fast enough. I'll be having the sleeve done. [emoji16][emoji16]

I'm also very nervous, scared, happy, worried, doubtful, relieved, hopeful, etc. I have been waiting for so long and never thought that it would actually happen. Now that I'm scheduled for the gastric bypass on Dec 18 it just got REAL!!! Good luck to everyone.

I'm not scheduled yet. I've got my pre-op testing on 12/11 and my pre-op visit with the surgeon on the 13th. Despite that, his office has told me I'd be scheduled within a couple of weeks and, when I asked, said that Christmas week is a a reasonable expectation if I want to do it then as they expect it to be a quiet week. Soooooo, that's what I'm targeting!

I am excited!!! 12/12 is my surgery date. I have been trying to get on the schedule and jumped through all my hoops for the past 2 1/2 years (My file got lost twice) This is my Christmas present to myself.

      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.
