Tomorrow's my big day



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Just wanted to say that tomorrow is my big day! I am so excited, nervous and scared all at the same time. I guess you could just say that I am a big ball of mess right now hee hee hee! I have to be at the hospital at 6am sharp. Wow that's in less than 7 hours. I better get off to bed. I will update when I get home.

Thanks,

Crystal

Crystal you will be fine. I was a bit happy scared like you and the worst part was probably waiting to go down to theatre when the tv had cooking shows on and the magazines I had bought to read had far too ,many food items on but I did make it through!!

:eek: All the very best. You have been a tower of strength and encouragement for everyone this month with your official good luck thread, and I am sending a huge portion of the same over to you from Oz along with a huge Aussie hug!!:tongue:

I lost 5 lbs just on the day before liquid diet!!! I could lose 15 lbs in 3 days of liquids!!! I know, not true. Good luck to all the others today

I am too late to wish you luck before you leave for surgery so I guess you'll see this on the flip side! I know you'll do great. Thankyou for all of your support and well wishes for the last month (as Hilary said previously). It is being sent back to you 100 fold right now! Let us all know how are you doing as soon as you can!

      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.
