TOMORROW...The Big Day!



Recommended Posts

Hello, Bariatric Buddies!

TOMORROW is my big day! After about 32 years of being in the range of chubby to overweight to morbidly obese, TOMORROW is the day I take back my life! So excited and nervous! I have been wanting RNY for about 14 years now! I almost did it twice in the past, two false starts...looks like the third time is the charm!

Excited and nervous. Packing my bag tonight OF COURSE I have been a procrastinator! Eating sugar-free Jello and Water until my eyes pop (3 Day Clear liquid diet pre-op!) and I already lost about 10 pounds before...

Would LOVE a Surgery Twin for the RNY or at least someone in the same week as me! <3 Thank you all for being here!

      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.
