Approved! December 17Th



Recommended Posts

Am so excited!!! I got the call today! I am approved! It felt like eternity since I suited the request and it took everything in me not to call every day to ask. My surgery date is December 17th first thing in the morning! And to make it even better I don't have to do a three week pre op diet it is only 2! Which means I get to eat Thanksgiving dinner! Any veterans have advice on what to bring to the hospital? Or how to prepare? Mentally and physically

I would prepare myself at least a wk before surgery to shrink your liver and emotionally prepare yourself to train your head hunger. All surgeons have a pre op diet before and it's strange to hear you say 2 days before.... You need good Protein and Vitamins to be able to have a good healing process etc.... In the meantime enjoy all your favorite food and the best advice 1 wk pre op. Glad to hear you had the acceptance! My surgery Is Dec 1 4 2013... Christmas will be grand this year despite the food lol

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
