December Bypass Twin?



Recommended Posts

Ae2018- my surgery is in 5 days. No pre-op diet for me but I am watching my food intake. Clear Liquids only the day before. I am fairly certain Protein Shakes will be too sweet for me post op and I have GENEPRO Protein Powder which I tried with chicken bullion, not a fan. I plan on making Jell-O shots this weekend with it. I tried chicken broth Soup from Unjury and LOVED it so I ordered plenty. I’m trying to stay out of the public as much as possible due to it being cold and flu season and I am not trying to get sick and have surgery postponed so I have stocked up on crystal light and flavored waters as well.

I had my RNY Monday the 3rd, how is everyone doing post op so far if you’ve been in this week? Luckily, I dodge the nausea which had me terrified and liquids are going down easy. But this hunger, I’ve never experienced more discomfort in my life. I can deal with the pain, even that was more intense than I had planned. I have my first post op visits Tuesday and will ask about incorporating some soft foods. I’m so uncomfortable I can’t even communicate with family and friends. Wetting all my Protein in and plus some. Hoping everyone is recovering well!

I had RNY on 12/3 as well. I can relate to the hunger. I just try to focus on all my liquids. If Im hungry, I'll just make some turkey Bone Broth an add vegetables. I don't eat the veggies but seeing them makes me think I am. Im usually full after that. Also staying on a routine the entire day helps. Hope this helps, if not remember this is only temporary.

I'm in Michigan. I start liquid diet one week prior to surgery so the 27th....I have my few hour long pre-op class on the 26th. Thanksgiving will be my last big meal! Excited for 2019......a life-changing year!!!
My bypass is scheduled for the 26th. [emoji4] It was interesting eating a Thanksgiving meal with abandon. That is the last time. I did enjoy it.

Hey everyone I am having my bypass this Monday the 10th. I am so excited and nervous. I don't have to do a preop diet, I am glad about this but also a little worried. What if I gain a few pounds will this increase the risk of surgery?please if any body else on here didn't have to do a preop diet how was your surgery?

No pre op diet for me either. I just watched what I ate the week before to be certain I didn’t gain. I had one great meal at my favorite restaurant with wine but ate healthy the remainder, worked for me. Good luck, I’m 5 days post op and it’s been tough for me.

      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.
