Let's keep this thread going! We are getting closer to our surgery dates! How is everyone doing? Have you started buying your items!?
I already bought the Vitamins, got some liquid ones for the first few days!




I start my diet on July 6th for my July 18 surgery... I haven't thought about buying much except for stocking up on my Protein shakes! I'd like to drink two a day at first to ensure my protein is def in besides what I eat!

Just started the pre-op liquid diet for two weeks on Monday. Head hunger was awful last night. While I'm at work during the day I have no problem because I'm so busy. Get home and then all the sudden all I can think about is things that I can eat like fish and how it would be OK. If only had to walk into my bedroom and lay down and watch TV so I can stay away from the food. Today was fIne and my husband & daughter are eating dinner over at the in-laws, I won't have to worry about seeing food tonight LOL. Haven't bought anything yet but I need to go ahead and get everything together. I guess I will do it this weekend so I can keep myself out of the house and not wanting food if I'm home.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
