Surgery tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

My future surgery, my dream and now you are my little pioneer! Linzlulu now relax tonight, plant peaceful and joyous thoughts in your mind, you know it's your time, although it is difficult to give over control of your body even for a short period, you have built up trust with these people and you know nothing bad will be happening. Tomorrow you will go to your bariatsic facility, put on one of their nasty ugly surgical gowns. In my facility they are grey with a red abstract design, but what can I expect? It's Ohio Stare University, the home of scarlet and gray! You will curl up on a gurney, have an IV started and soon go Sleepy Bye. When you wake up again , you may be stiff, you may be sore and you might even be nauseated. You'll be in a room with surgical techs, nurses and other good people all watching over you and keeping you safe. When you are ready you will be up and walking, sipping and seeing the sights in the unit. Bottom line, you'll do just fine and you'll have a Bari-sister in Ohio jealous as snarf,cause you'll be where I long to be! Oh the wheels are turning for me to join you, I just don't know exactly the speed. But,it is going to come,even if I have to use a box cutter and fishing,line and do myself. I will be sending happy positive thoughts your direction tomorrow. And be sure to tell me all about it as soon as you feel like posting, because I WILL BE WAITING!

      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.
