I am having a revision from Lap-Band to Bypass on Sept 14th. I'm sooo ready to have the band gone but I'm nervous as heck to have the bypass, excited as well. I'm all over the place! [emoji3]
I'm scheduled for the bypass on 9/14 too. Very exciting!

Well I’m scheduled for sept 8 and I wish my husband was more involved I been doing a lot of researching watching videos and reading books etc... sure my husband came with me to the seminar but I can’t get him to listen to me about the journey after surgery he thinks by listening to the seminar he knows it all and the rest I’m over reacting. He cares more for his mutt then he does me so this journey I’ve started is all me and I’m very proud of how much I’ve done on pre-op diet I went from 306 lbs. to 288 but I still have to weight myself Sunday I’m hoping for 280 but wait and see. But hopefully everything will turn out great one day at a time. Gl sept. Surgeries

Tarotcardreader it does get easier mind over matter you have to really realize you need to do this I really didn’t start getting hunger pains til this last week of my liquid diet and it’s not everyday if I feel hungry I go have a hot cup of broth or tea and I feel better just tricking your mind having something hot is what helped me

So I had the Gastric Bypass yesterday and Tbh my pain has not been too bad. I am on a shake and Water diet for 5 hours until I can get sent home and I’m not gonna lie it is kind of hard to get them down within 15mins of each other because you will feel full. Then in between that I have to walk. But I was drugged up after surgery for a quite awhile. But so far not too bad at all! Also I see someone asked about how long for Clear Liquids. My doctor is making me do two weeks of clear liquids and shakes then my diet will advance.

      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.
