December Surgery dates???



Recommended Posts

I'm supposed to start my pre-op diet on 12/4, but after eating way too much on Thanksgiving, I couldn't take it anymore, and started the pre-op on Black Friday. I figure a few extra days of pre-op won't hurt, and maybe I can drop some extra weight too!

My pre-op is 3 Protein Shakes and a light dinner. We can substitute a lean cuisine for a traditional dinner, which I did last night!

December 10th. I have to 2 weeks pre op diet and on day 4th. Feeling hangry.

Couldn’t believe it took 2 weeks for me to have 1 occasion to be hungry. Although, the tuna is approved, I had really wanted to be chew free for the 3 weeks. Not sure why, good news tuna usually make me indigestion but it didn’t yesterday. Think my stomach said be glad you got it now shut up.

I also cheated with half of my daughter’s grilled cheese :(

Cheated too and then called a wise friend who has been through this too and she said Do you really think you’re the only one to cheat? Put it into prospective. Lol

I am December 2 at Kaiser Northern California. I thought I would have to go on a liquid diet but Kaiser doesn’t require that - they let you eat up to 8 hours prior to surgery! They said it is easier for the body to heal after surgery. Definitely thankful.

Makes sense to me. This has been like training for a fight. I would never starve myself before a fight . :)

Which Dr and which office? I'm scheduled with Dr Hahn. I haven't had my pre-op appt yet (it's in a couple weeks) but my surgeon let me know he would likely put me on a liquid diet... Hoping that's not the case but planning for it.

@loridee11 - I’m at the South Sacramento location. I don’t think any of the Kaiser’s prescribe a liquid diet before surgery.

      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!

      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!!
