Well it happened to me. My surgeon called and said my surgery had to be bumped to the 14th instead of the 13th. Annoying.

That sucks!

And I love how the scheduler is like it's no big deal. B*** I just one more liquid diet added to my week! :lol:

So then I tell my husband and this is the text I get back: "Do you need me to change my days off or can your mom take you home from the hospital?"

GRRRR - You know what, I'll just take a damn Uber home. At least I know they'll be there for me!

I understand that. But we are now on the same day. SINCE i was bumped once I am keeping my fingers cross it doesn't happen again. 14th needs to hurry up so we can heal up.

I will lose it if it happens again. All week long I've had these crazy anxiety dreams about surgery that won't stop. This extra day pretty much ensures they'll continue. :angry:

Oh dang, he needs a readjustment, I will leave that up to you. Yea the Drs office doesn't realize all the that has to be made. My husband took military leave for 2 weeks so we understand. Thankfully he had lots of time saved. We are here for you always...

YLime I just saw a new friend for the summer list. Pure Chicagr had surgery June 12th in South Africa. That's the very 1st South African I've heard of in a long while. I think there was a newbie seeker when I first started, maybe November or December 2017?

      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.
