Surgery Date Soon



Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Shauna I started my Journey for the Gastric Sleeve in January 2018 and now I'm getting so close to getting my surgery date. They told me next time I come I will probably get my surgery date. I'm excited but nervous about it. I'm doing this journey with my daughter who is also going have the sleeve done.

Ah goody, another Midwesterner, I'm in Ohio, central Ohio 14 miles from the Geographical Center. It's a small (20.000) city called Mount Vernon. I will have my surgery in Columbus, our State capital 50 miles to the SW.

Hi Shauna how are you doing with your Weight loss journey? Have you lost any more weight? Mine seems not to want leaving me, I'd like to wave bye bye to a few more pounds if I had the choice.[emoji14][emoji170][emoji14]

      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.
