Being Sleeved on 3/15!



Recommended Posts

I start a 10 day pre-op diet tomorrow. Ideas for keeping my mind busy and off of not being able to eat normally?

Excited, nervous, all kinds of emotions. Anyone have the same surgery date and want to team up for support?

Mandykins, there's a newer thread called Coping Mechanisms, a lot of people telling what they do when the food Monster tries to get their attention. Really enjoyed reading it and got a few ideas myself.We all or will all go through what you're going through now, you're among friends and the worldwide Bariatric family here. I love to chat, only thing bigger than my listening ear is my mouth. My mamma, may she rest in peace, used to tell me " you have 2 ears and only 1 mouth, so you should listen twice as often as you talk" didn't pay much attention to those wise words! Hey kid, you're are now on the glide path to your surgery, every little thing's gonna be alright and these liquid days will be worth it. Best of luck to you and Chambo both, you will be forever surgery twins.

      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.
