Anyone else having Surgery March 2021?



Recommended Posts

I just got scheduled for my surgery March 25, 2021! I am so excited and so scared all at the same time! It is crazy how I feel. I keep looking at posts for inspiration and motivation to keep going. Reminding myself, wow that could be me in a few months! Anyone else feeling like this and scheduled for Gastric Bypass this month?

It is so good to know other people are feeling the same way. Everyone in my family keeps asking me "How do you feel?" I get asked so much I wish I hadnt told anyone lol.

I’ve kept the surgery quiet. I don’t want to deal with the questions before hand, I have enough nerves about it to hear it from everyone I know too.

🙋🏽‍♀️March 26th for me . . im super anxious , i just keep hoping that it doesnt get canceled 😩 i was originally supposed to have it done on jan 19th but due to covid it was cancelled so im just hoping that the same thing doesnt happen. My 2 week liquid diet starts on the 8th and im so not looking forward to it but i know that means one step closer to the big day. 😬 So im super excited overall. (Gastric Sleeve is mine)

      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.
