I had my post-op appointment and finally met my doctor today. Let's just say that he is very pleasing to the eye:) The original doctor that I saw at my seminar was an older man. He is very popular and they asked if I wanted to go with his partner for to get an earlier date. Yes, of Course. I had researched him but never seen a picture. I'm so glad that my husband didn't come to this appointment. I didn't know that at 40 I could still blush like that. He's just another reason that I'm ready! Come on December 2nd.

Anyone else with a "Hot Doc"?

LOL! Okay, I'll behave. But I have to do something to get me through this. I start Monday. Four more days:(. I'm trying not too go crazy and binge. It's like a war zone in my head. I saw your one post. Girl, you got me scared! Do you think I should start taking out meals and adding my shakes Friday? Then maybe by Monday it won't be as bad?

LOL! Sorry, maybe you'll have a Hot male nurse! I start my pre-op diet on Monday! I'm lucky that I only have 7 days to go through withdrawals. It's like a war zone inside my head trying not to binge. I'm thinking about starting my shakes Friday. Then cutting out a meal day by day. Maybe by Monday I won't be a "Hot Mess".

Not my VSG surgeon, but it reminds me of the new doc at the OB/GYN's office when I was very pregnant with my son. He was a beautiful man with an awesome Southern accent. I had to go in because my hands and feet were swollen...He wheeled his little chair over and gently picked up my foot so he could look at it. I said, "Uh, those aren't my ankles. Just so you know. Oh and there is no way I'm having my baby when you're on call."

This is ridiculous! I've done some crazy diets in my day. Now I'm stressing over something like this. I think that I would do better if I lived by myself. My husband will probably sabotage me unknowingly. My five year old son always wants me to taste his food. Our pantry is full of his Snacks. This will be a try test do will. We have to look at it as our fasting and prayer. Because that's what it's going to take to make it through. Lots of Prayers.

Well look at it this way you werent the first to do this diet and u wont be the last people struggle and some cheat the best thing for you to do is not worry about how many days it is but worry about each day as it comes thats the only way you can tackle the pre op diet.... focuz on the moment cuz thats all u can live for and i have began to apply that to alot of other areas in my life...and found it to be true...but hey look at the bright side we are all on here for the same thing so if u need a friend im never to far away as well as the next person we can all be ur support system...and about your husband and son...thats a complicated one all i can say to that is think about how much it would beniit u to just stick to yoyr diet...because there is a reason our doc puts us on these things...its to make our livers shrink...my doc told me if after the 14 days she opens me up and my liver is to big shes closing ne right back up and sending me on my way she wont risk any complications....(sorrg for the long ass paragraph) lol

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
