thillman1987 43 Posted September 12, 2019 is nerves getting to anyone else?Absolutely! I just got the call that the insurance company approved my surgery for 9/17/19. We scheduled it way out because my insurance wanted me to quit smoking for 6 months but would not approve it if I proved I hadn't smoked.Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using BariatricPal mobile app 2 smaller_sav and NagathaChristie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thea7777 27 Posted September 13, 2019 Hi. If anyone is curious I had my surgery Tuesday. As of today I’m doing well. No need for pain meds. My stomach feels still so bloated though. Like I’m pregnant! No big issues with my liquids just not that interested. Its like a job to fit everything in. Passing gas is a challenge but walking around is helpful. Any questions feel free to message me. Im more than happy to share any of it if will help! Good luck to those coming up! 3 1 shanshan, smaller_sav, Dee2938 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thillman1987 43 Posted September 15, 2019 Mines the 17th any surgery twins? There are like 6 or 7 others in here with the same surgery day. I was contemplating going thru and making a list and chat that we were all in to update each other. I'm on the same day for RNY.

Mines tomorrow! Today is the only day I have to stick to a clear liquid diet. I'm wicked excited but trying to keep busy to keep my mind off of food and what's going to happen tomorrow! I'm so excited and nervous and anxious and ecstatic and happy. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gumby19943 4 Posted September 16, 2019 My surgery is Friday. Works no all week will help to get thru the rest of the liquid diet. So far so good but having trouble getting a whole Protein Shake in, in one meal. The clear Protein Drinks seem to be more palatable. Ordered some more Protein chicken broth. Any others ideas for pushing thru? It has been helpful to see othersgoing thru as I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
