July Gastric Bypass?



Recommended Posts

I'm on day 2 of my preop liquid diet. It'll be for two weeks for me. I only get broth, Protein Shakes, sf Jello. I think I hit 640 calories yesterday. I wasn't given a calorie amount so I'm not too sure about that part. How long will you be in the hospital?
Wow, 640? That's harsh! Well done though.
I'll be in hospital for 2 nights apparently and off work for a couple of weeks.
I'm about to go make my dessert, low fat yoghurt and some strawberries. Aaaaaaaand then I'm gonna go to bed so I don't eat!
Good luck for tomorrow for your day 3

My surgery is July 11th. I’m worried because my last appointment is tomorrow. I was 347 last time and I’m 355. I hope it doesn’t blow my chances. I’ve been working so hard to get to this point. I’m in Delaware. I’m a teacher and I’m 31 married no kids yet.

That is one of the reasons I am getting the surgery. I wanted to avoid complications when I get pregnant sometime after the 18 months.

Laura , honey, I get to say honey because I guarantee I'm old enough be your grandmother or great grandmother. If you have gained it is almost certain you'll be put on the liquid diet , 1 to shrink your liver and 2 to pare a little weight off, just,pray surgeon doesn't move your surgery date back to give you 2 weeks or more on the regimen. Could Happen! Bariatric Surgeons don't have very good sense of humor when it comes to weight gain , especially this close to his circus party.😧

      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.
