Vizslamom 92 Posted August 21, 2018 Surgery tomorrow. Waiting for the call today so I know when to show up at the hospital. Ready for the pre-op diet to be over. Post-op diet not easy either, but at least much more variety. 1 Auroragirl4489 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theresahyatt19 142 Posted August 21, 2018 [mention=343065]Starr2015[/mention] OMG I feel so weak at work this morning. I had to go with Gatorade low sugar because the regular is just too sweet for me. Its weird because before it lacked sugar lol. I used a Protein Powder with 60grams of Protein. Of course I only used half of it with my herbalife shake formula which I love banana caramel and it tasted horrible as well. I am done with this liquid stage but can't tolerate anything else. I order some things from Bariatric pal to eat for this week and they should arrive to me job today. I cannot wait lol I notice you take Herbalife shakes that's ok for protein shakes.i love Herbalife shakesSent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EasternNC 12 Posted August 25, 2018 My surgery was originally scheduled for next week on Thursday but the hospital called me last week to tell me that the anesthesiologists wouldn't clear me because I had stents put in last December and would have to wait until a year had passed. So, my surgery has been rescheduled for Dec 13th. Needless to say I was disappointed since I have been working on getting all the appointments etc for almost 2 years, but Dec. is only 4 months away and I expect it will go quickly since I just started school Aug 20th. I am taking Intro to Russian at East Carolina University and so far I love the course. I also signed up for a pottery course. So my time should be filled up and pass quickly. The only drawback is that since the VA is doing my surgery I will have to travel to Huntington, WV in the winter instead of the summer. Here's hoping the weather is not a problem. I hope all of you who have had the surgery are doing well. 3 Marisol Unda, GamePlan18 and Auroragirl4489 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marisol Unda 43 Posted August 25, 2018 EasternNC I am sorry. That must have been disappointing. December is right around the corner and journey is continuing. It hasn’t halted. Big hug friend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EasternNC 12 Posted August 25, 2018 Thanks, Marisol. I was disappointed but I took it in stride because it is for my own good. I have to come off the Plavix for a week for the surgery and six months is too soon. So I understand the reason was so psyched for August. I am taking it better than I would have in the past. But I'm 66 now so I am wiser! Pat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
