Are protein shakes PRE-OP harmful or helpful?
Luckystar12 replied to ashleymullen's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
My surgeon has me on a 2 week pre op diet of 3 protein shakes a day, plus one low carb low fat meal, plus a snack like fruit. Shows you how different all surgeons are. -
Scheduled for Jan 7th. So nearvous. So nervous. So nervous. Thats it!!

stretch, perhaps ?
Luckystar12 replied to tonyarenee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Your stomach is swollen for about 8 weeks. You will naturally be able to eat a little more once swelling goes down. No need to freak out, its not stretching. 600 cals a day is like 1/6 of what u eat pre op. Give yourself credit! -
To eveyone posting the good and bad, thank you! I am scheduled for surgey in Jan and without this site, i do not think i could do it. You guys motivate and make it real. Please keep it coming and know that it is so appeetiated.

So i know we are not supposed to use straws. Intake of gas i suppose?? But i noticed that i can get nice small sips in with straws. Im pre op...practicing! Tell me your straw story.
-
I have noticed that straws help take in things that dont taste so good...like protein shakes! Sends it right bedhind the taste buds. When i sip i have to taste it. Ughh. Lol.

My date is Jan 7th and my nerves are going to be out of control i know it. I work with a surgeon and he keeps telling me i should be just fine and after a few months i will laugh at myself for being nerved out. Its normal to be nervous, its surgery! Elective! I just try to look at how it will change my life for the good. I think your nerves will be crazy until you are put to sleep on the table. I know mine will. I wish you all the luck and keep us posted with your post op progress.

Is 65 Lbs A Good Hunk Of Weight To Be Down At 5 Months?
Luckystar12 replied to stellabug321's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think those that lose 100 lbs in 5 months are over 350 lbs. You tend to lose more the heavier your are. 10 lbs a month is considered very sucessful. You are doing great!! Everyone is too hard on themselves!! Everyone here seems to be doing amazing. You are my motivation -

One Before Preop Diet And Eating Like A Pregnant Lady
Luckystar12 replied to newgirltx's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have not been over eating, i just eat what i want half the time and watch the other half. I have not gained a pound doing this so i dont worry about it. When i watch myself 100% of the time i feel deprived. I am actually eating less these days days trying to trick my mind before the big day. Dont beat yourself up over this. As someone who lived on diets since 8 years old, im glad to be enjoying myself just for a few weeks. You will be fine!! -

One Before Preop Diet And Eating Like A Pregnant Lady
Luckystar12 replied to newgirltx's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think its the whole "omg i cant ever eat these things again" panic. Like its your last meal. Im sort of doung that now. "trying to get it all in" type of attitude. I am pre op, January date. Christmas is my "last meal" lol. Dont worry! You are normal. -
Yikes! Surgery Is In The Morning...
Luckystar12 replied to mrchris's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im already super nervous and my date is jan 7th. I visited a friend in hospital today who had her sleeve done one Monday. Same place i will go. She was doung great and her incisions were tiny and hardly noticable! Made me feel a little better. There is always that "what if" in my head about something goung wrong. But i always overthink and worry about nothing. Nerves will be the only thing stopping me, but i need to do this. I understand your freak out mode and the closer i get the more freaked out i get that im doing this!! Stay strong and the best of luck with your surgery!! -
Pre surg. Anyone sleeved by Dr. Schrope in NYC?? Tell me your experience.
