Tomorrow is the big day!



Recommended Posts

Well, tomorrow morning I am scheduled to get banded. I am getting anxious, but excited as well. I am excited to get started on my new life!

I am hungry today on the pre-op diet, but wonder how you all felt hunger-wise post-op? I am talking before mushies. I will be on Clear liquids only a week after the surgery, add Protein Shakes the next week, and mushies on the 3rd and 4th weeks. I am nervous about how I will feel.

Thank you all for your support and answers! Have a wonderful day!:confused:

No answers for you, but lots of good luck wishes for you! I'm behind you by 17 days. You'll do great!

Good luck tomorrow!

I am on day 4 post-op and I am not as hungry as I was pre-op, but I am hungry...I won't lie. However, it's a different kind of hunger - my tummy is growling and feels hollow, but the thought of eating kind of makes me queasy. It's odd.

I'm pretty much on the same post-op schedule as you - I'm sure we can do it!

I am 4 days post op as well and felt a bit of hunger yesterday but it passed, and today I am not hungry at all. I can do Protein Shakes starting today so I am happy to be out of the clear phase.

Tomorrow is my day too!!! Today has been pretty easy for me, but very surprisingly! I really haven't been hungry on this pre-op liquid diet. Today is the only day I had to be on liquids, other than my phase 1 Breakfast today. Then at noon I had to drink the magnesium stuff, but found grape flavored thanks to the NP that I met with at final weigh in.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
