December 28, 2020 surgery date, looking for friend?



Recommended Posts

Hi!! I’m scheduled for December 28 and I’m looking for some buddies within a week or so of the same date. I’m so nervous/excited!! I need an accountability friend, though, someone who understands what’s going on. 😁

Hi, I'll be your friend! I just found these forums; in fact, this is my first post. My surgery date is January 5, so I'll be having my sleeve exactly one week and one day after you.

I started a year ago at 301 lbs. Now at 274. Hoping to take off another few before surgery, but as long as I can maintain through the holidays I'll be happy. Goal weight? Um. No idea, to be honest. I've been fat my whole life, so I can't really conceive of myself as straight-sized!

How are you ladies doing?? I have a new best friend, Zero Gatorade seems to be easier for me to go down for some reason. Thursday will be my start of phase 2 for puree foods. What are some of your best puree foods?

      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.
