Prayers incoming for you Nurse_Emily 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼. I am hopeful it will be short lived and all of this wickedness will leave our world soon.
Be strong, know you are loved and God will protect us.
This is one of the things I am concerned about as well. My surgery is in a week and in Seattle. I pray daily for Everything to be ok.
Sending you ❤️

So sorry this happened to you! It has been my biggest fear for about two weeks now. I am scheduled for 7/6. I will be sending you positive vibes for decreasing COVID in your state. 💕

Thanks hun. Yeah it's been rough working as a nurse during these times. I work in the isolation unit and I kind of figured it was coming.. but was still hopeful... I'm sure it will happen when it needs to happen... right now.. just a little worried with the spike in cases and working mandatory overtime.. its been rough

Hey guys love and strenght to you all.

i have my date july21st I am having the sleeve. We do a two week diet my starts sunday lots of Protein in meat or shake and 6 servings of vegetables a day, I found a garlic ad herb grinder seasoning from bjs that is amazing. I even purchased some pans that can cook and the food slides off into the pan without oil. I found I have to find ways to remindmyself to drink. I am going to make frozen popsicles from my protein drink.I purchased popsicle mold from Amazon. The biggest thing folks is to get that designated Fluid in. The misery is multiplied by dehydration.

remember We got this folks !

      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.
