Any news on Diane?



Recommended Posts

Hey Melissa...I actually just talked to her. She is on the good drugs but doing well. She said she was in pain but knows it was a good thing for her. She said her nerves were calm and she has lost 15 pounds on her pre op diet. She will be getting up and walking tomorrow....

If I talk to her tomorrow... I will keep you posted.

Are you talking about Diane Beck? If so, I heard from her. That girl has spunk! Even after everything she's been through, she still has an amazing sense of humor and a terrific outlook.

Lisa, Melissa is asking about Dianne (Sunsett), who was banded today in Charlotte, NC. BUT, thanks for the Diane Beck update! So glad to hear she is doing well...fully recovered, I'm assuming? I'd love to know more...on another thread? LOL I'll go hunting now for more info :)

:Bunny Spoke with Dianne and she's doing just fine. Came thru the surgery with flying colors. She was being a real trooper this evening and gave me a blow by blow on her experience. Told me have no fear on Friday. She was thinking she might want to stay an extra night - at least that's how she's feeling right now. She wants you guys to know she OKAY:). Take care everyone, if I get anymore info I will share. Bye for now.

You will be fine...really. Went home just after 24 hours in there. I couldn't rest there and I just wanted to get home in my own bed and my own place. I am sure you will do great....

Hello everyone, I spoke with Dianne this evening and she is doing well and in good spirit her second night stay. She sound much better too without all the drugs in her. She's amazed at the amount of food it takes to get her full.

I'm getting a little nervious. I'm going back and forth thinking maybe I can do it on my own because I lost 10lbs so far. But that was short lived when I remembered I can't control my portion size on my own. So Friday it is - can't come soon enough for me. Thanks for all the well wishes.

      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.
