Weekend getaway right before surgery...



Recommended Posts

ok, so i am 2 days away and am very very nervous. Me, my husband and my best friend decided to get away for the weekend and go to San Antonio to visit my husbands brother. we made plans to go tubing down the river and go out dancing.. you know just hang out. all was fun but the hurdles i had to jump was crazy!! do you know how hard it is to be 23, not to drink when out with your buddies?? its very difficult! but i didnt. as far as my pre-op diet goes. i was so proud of myself until about 3 am ssaturday night. we stopped by whatabuger after dancing. this little hill billy place wasnt serving breckfast so eggs were out of the question! so, yes i was starving and i did it... i ate a jr. burger!!! ugh!! i felt horrible afterwards. and you know somethin... it wasnt even good!!!!!! so, now i broke my diet and am feeling so bad about it. im 2 days before my surgery. i hope i havent screwed anythin up. anyways... i think tomorrow im just going to do slim fast and pudding all day! then tuesday i cant have anything but liquids so maybe itll all work out!

Im very very nervous!!!!!

Dust yourself off and get back on the wagon. Everything will be fine and you'll come through with flying colors! Isn't it funny how that burger didn't taste as good. Sometimes it's not the actual food that we want but, rather, the experience itself. We're learning as we go!

Everything will be fine, one slip up is no big deal! Heck my surgeon has me eating normal food until dinner tonight and my surgery is tomorrow! Don't worry you haven't messed anything up, we'll all go off our diets once in awhile just don't let it get to you. Don't feel guilty just continue your diet from here on out. Good Luck!

      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.
