Another June-Bug reporting in!!



Recommended Posts

Hi there!

I just had my consult appt with Dr. Snyder in Denver and I have a tenative date of June 12th. I am hoping for sooner, but they decided since I am turning the big 5-0 on Sat. that I should have a stress test. I have that scheduled for tomorrow and if they get the clearance back quickly I might get moved up. I am supposed to call after my vacation next week and check, but she was doubtful I could get in before months end so looks like June regardless still. I am so excited. I am hoping, of course, for a sooner date. On June 13th we have out of town company arriving to stay the weekend until Tues. but I decided I would still have it the 12th if I didn't get sooner. We'd probably just be sitting around chatting anyway and I should be able to sit and chat okay, might not be up to climging a '14er' in the mountains or anything. The hard part will be dining out if we do and not joining in, but it's about the socializing anyway.

Thanks Lana, I am hoping and praying I get sooner. At least I know it won't be later than that!!

BTW, I used to live in Sacramento and my daughter just moved here from there last week. She lived in Citrus Heights, I lived in the Natomas Park area. Where are you having your surgery? UCD???

      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.
