March 2021 Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

I wasn’t able to find a March thread, so I guess I’ll start one. (If I missed it, someone let me know where to find it!)

I got scheduled for 25 March a few weeks ago. Found out today that insurance approved! Getting my COVID test on the 19th.

Any other March-ers??? Would be fun to have a place to share our experiences. :)

March 17th is when I had my surgery in Tijuana Mexico. Feeling great!

So glad to hear your positive feedback about your experience . I had surgery March 22 in Maryland. Doing well also. Wish I was losing weight faster, but I understand it’s a process. I keep asking my husband if I’m invisible yet... haha.

Hey y'all! How is everyone doing???? I am 6 weeks post- op now. I have been really lucky in that I had no real pain, got to go home several hours early the day after surgery, able to get back to work right away (not ideal but necessary), and every food phase has been okay. I hope everyone else is doing well too! I have two weeks until I am cleared to try anything I feel okay trying food-wise. As long as I can keep meeting my Protein requirements mostly through real food, it's all good!!!

      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.
