Recommended Posts

I go in for surgery on Monday you guys!! Yes!!!! I am soooo nervous and excited! My surgery is scheduled for 6am. I am the first on the surgery schedule!

I guess it helps to be an employee and have friends in surgery(wink). My mom says thatI should not be nervous(she is a nurse) because this is something that I want very much I say anesthesia is scary! LOL I am so glad that I have yall for support!. I stopped by the nutritionalist's office and purchased my Protein drinks. The name is PROTI MAX they taste really good! Well please keep me in your prayers and thoughts on Monday at 6am. I know that you all will be there with me in spirit. Thanks!! I love you guys!!!

Congrats!

Something that might help you with the anesthesia part is telling the anesthesiologist the truth about your fear. I did and it went a lot smoother, he was extra nice to me and told me everything he was going to do.

C-ya on the losing team! :)

DEE DEE: Good luck and everything will be just fine. I will say an extra prayer for you that morning. Aren't you excited though? I know I was the day of my surgery. I was also slightly nervous as well. Then I woke up and all was well.

HUGS DEE DEE

      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.
