Countdown to my Sleeve Gastronomy



Recommended Posts

Well its Sunday and I have just one mote fay before surgery

Tomorrow will be hard. I am going with my niece and her husband and daughter to a friends house for a cookout. They get to eat hamburgers and hot dogs and baked Beans, while I will be sipping my clear broth and drinking Water and apple juice. Juice to keep my sugar up.

Have to be up btight and early Tuesday foray surgery. Have to be at the hospital by 8:00 am.for surgery at 10:00 am .

My journey has been a real tough one.

I started out at 410 lbs and am down to 367 lbs with just dieting. I haven't thought of a goal weight yet

Any weight loss is a victory to me.After all my health issues, I have to do better and get healthier.

I need to focus on just getting through this surgery and then I can begin the real weight loss journey.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL( ESPECIALLY THOSE WITH SURGERY'S COMING UP)

THANKS FOR ALL THE POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND COMMENTS.

      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.
