FEBRUARY 2020 Surgery dates🌹❤️



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I just found this forum but I guess it was at the right time. I started this journey in April of 2018 and I am finally 2 days from my surgery date. I have spent the last 3 weeks on a very low carb and fat diet. Today I started my full liquid diet and my surgery is 2/18/2020. I am super nervous about the pain and the length of the hospital stay. My doctor said I should be released by noon the next day but that seems kinda soon. Was anyone else released within 24 hrs of their surgery time?

Congratulations I had mine 3 days ago. I was done as an outpatient. Released a half hour after my procedure. Everyone is different but I’m doing fine.

Surgery on 2/19. Getting nervous, but I’m ready.

      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.
