Surgery December 15th @ 7:30am



Recommended Posts

My surgery is finally here. I am excited and scared all at the same time. I am so sick of being on the pre-op liquid diet that I am actually looking forward to the surgery. I know I still have 2 more weeks of liquid dieting...but hopefully I won't feel like my stomach is trying to eat me alive from the inside out! hehe!

I think I have read every post good and bad on here and I feel I am doing the right thing. I have lots of support from my family and friends. And I want to thank all my bariatricpals for helping me get thru the last few months. I will be posting as soon as I get home. Thanks all! :)

Dmaddox1, I hope your surgery went great! I also had mine yesterday, and I'm home now! They only need me to stay overnight. The pain is manageable and I'm on broth and Jello till Thursday!

Hi everyone, how are you all doing? I hope you are all doing well, and that no one has had a serious problems.

I had my surgery on the 15th also. I haven't had much pain, but have had a lot of nausea, For me the nausea bothers me more than pain would. Right now all the liquids I have tried taste terrible. :( They tasted fine before surgery, so I am hopeful that they will taste better soon. Other than that I feel better than I expected.

Hi Waterlily22, I doing good!

The pain and gas can be very bad at times, and the other times I can deal with it and keep moving. I know it will get better soon, and I hope everyone else is doing great.

Hi Leanora27801, Glad to hear you are doing well! I know what you mean, sometimes I have zero pain and sometimes there is a lot. I agree with you it helps that we know it will get better soon, and it isn't permanent! :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
