I’m technically “may” but the 31st. All of this is so exciting! I start liquid diet Friday so my friends are making sure I am treated to all kinds of yummy food the last few weeks [emoji23][emoji23] I’m honestly almost tired of eating [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] 🥂 to all of us!
Wow just had a regular doc apt and lost 5 more lbs! I don't have surgery until June 4th. Makes me feel good when I can still loose a little on my own. Makes me feel the RnY is just another tool to help.
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.
Good Days Fine Days🌈 June Days Ahead for Us All!. ❤💚😝💜💙
