March-April Rny-ers



Recommended Posts

AshMarie are you getting excited? It is wonderful you are now so close. Are you busy making plans, getting everything in order before you go to the hospital? You probably have told us but I forget where you are having your surgery at. Have you watered your plants? All the bad food out of the pantry? Fed the cat, dog,or goldfish? Do you have to change your diet right before surgery? Can you tell I'm excited for you?

I am doing RNY. I’ve actually not been able to bring myself to do much planning yet. So much has been going on. My surgery will be at Oakland Regional in Michigan. My surgeon is Dr.Matthew Weiner.

Here’s a link to watch how my journey has been so far. If link is broken you can find me on YouTube. My channel name is Fat 2 Fab.

Shoot I should have remembered because I teased you about Dr W being a super star of Bariatrics I would prefer to meet him over your Governor or my Governor (who I knew because I campaigned for him in Columbus when we both were younger) and certainly not President Trump, who my son loathes.[emoji27]🇺🇸 Somebody said something like isn't he from your party? Nope I grew up as a Republican not a Trumperterian, I'd turn Democrat,or even a splinter party first.[emoji26]

I am happy and excited your day is coming! Please let me know how everything goes, okay? PS I just watched your you tube, very nicely done.[emoji12]

Is it crazy that I’m only 4 days post op and I am having major horror/crazy ass dreams of food? ??? It’s so weird and on top of that it is sooooooooo uncomfortable to sleep. I can’t wait til they take this thing out Thursday

It may mean that your sub consciousness realizes what a toxic relationship you had with food. I can admit my own because I know and realize it was an abuser that controlled me instead of me controlling it. And like many others of that ilk it told me " I'm the only friend you have" well I finally realized I no longer needed such a friend and the tie must be severed. On surgery day Unhealthy food and I will be divorced. You are stronger than I for you have already done it. I salute you LakeishaNicole.[emoji7]

I had mine one week ago.

i have had 2 food dreams with the same theme, eating something “bad” and then realizing....ooops!

I’m not hungry but commercials can be a killer😖

I am doing good. Meeting my 80+protein goal, drinking 64+ oz , getting in all my Vitamins. Seems like everyother day I am really full and it’s a little harder.

Still love my Premier Protein shakes so easy to get 2 a day for 60 Protein (split into 1/3s (7am, 9, 11, 1, 3, 5). Add some protein Water. I am taking Barmelt vitamins, sweet but getting use to them. Hardest is my Centrum Multivitamin chewable, tastes awful😝

Need to walk more, doing my breathing spirometer.

No pain or nausea. Haven’t taken anything since first day home.

Slept pretty good last 2 nights.

What is everyone else drinking?

I finally had 1/3 cup Soup. Probabably will have again tonight.

I had the same thing happen to me right after I came home from the hospital. I started eating cream of mushroom Soup five days post op and the dreams quit. For me, getting to eat something I really like (the soup) seemed to stop the dreams.

      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.
