Who will be my angel?



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

Been gone for a while. I moved into temporary housing while they build our new house. My plastic surgery is scheduled this Wednesday. I am getting a little freaked out. I am having my medial thighplasty, Tummy Tuck and my eyes fixed as well as a mole removed. I will be in the hospital one or two days depending how I am doing. I have managed to stay cigarette free for 3 months, but I did gain about 10 pounds from my all time low which I have not been able to get off. I am having an unfill. I have been having some reflux problems late at night for no apparent reason. I do have restriction, it is not a slippage, but I would feel better with less restriction after the surgery. I dont want to worry about reflux in addition to healing etc. I missed you guys. I wont be coming to Vegas in September since I dont know how I will be doing by then. Does anyone want to be my angel? Let me know and I will send the hospital information.

I'll be your angel too, but It will be in spirit only, since the physical distance is too great to overcome right now.

You will do just fine, and you wil be just fine!

Angel from California here. I think you'll be fine. I'm sure you'll be sore, but that much is to be expected :P

PM me your hospital name and phone. Let me know the minute you know your room number, too. If I didn't have to work, I'd be there in a heartbeat.

Good luck and speedy recovery! I'll volunteer to be a virtual angel, and I'm kinda close: in Denton! Maybe the healing vibes and prayers will be stronger? PM me if you need someone closer! ((hug)) Cindy

It looks like you need some Midwest prayer power coming your way, so I'll be your angel from Michigan! Good luck on your surgeries - you're an inspiration to all of us!

      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.
