appointment cancelled again!



Recommended Posts

Greetings,

Just needed to vent a bit! Yesterday was the second time my doctor had to cancel my appointment. I know that emergencies happen, but it is still very disappointing when this is the second time it was cancelled. This time he had a death in the family, no control over that for sure. But cannot get me in until the 20th of this month!

Had my physc exam today, it went quite well, only 165 questions to answer and then meet with the consouler for 45 minutes. I feel pretty good about it considering what I have read here in this forum. Do you see an elphant? What the hell is that about!?! Anyway, I didn't have a loon asking me questions. (thank goodness)

I will be posting again as soon as I get to see my docotor.

Have a nice day!

Mimi:wink_smile:

yeah! sorry about the cancellations! However you can be getting what you need together if you havent already done so.

Like Walmart has the lil 5 oz glasses that have measurments on it to help you keep your food after your surgery the correct amount.

also get some lil csutard bowls that whole 4 oz..

Too'you can have or aleast most of us can have sugar free popcicles ,but for my taste i would suggest the regular flav and no the tropical!

anyhow you can have frozen peas,beans,refried Beans,try to mx about 3 oz's of ricotta cheese with 1 oz of spag.sauce and such like that will help get you started but be sure to check with your dietion to see what they advised before you go out and buy this food i suggested that helped me esp in the very first 2 wks.

Also you can blend your chicken or turkey or pork in the blender and add some gravy that comes in a jar to this to help the taste ,make it moist and also it helps make it look better!

also its good to get some of the whey Protein from the GNC store sor other health food stores and get the pro perfomance kind its better in my opinion and i canhave the 1% milk with mine but again what ever your DR suggest to do!

Now back to your org comment ! I have that to happen to me 2 x;also but actaully it gave me a lil more time to get ready!

I know we get ourselves all ready emotional and it makes us so upset when this happens!

well pray everthing goes alrigth wiht your up coming surgery!

Keep us posted how you are doing ok? any more Q that i can help you answer i will be gald to do so!

      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.
