What's your favourite purred food
twoboysandagirl replied to Wildorchids's topic in Food and Nutrition
Thanks for starting this thread because I am technically in the stage but I have been afraid to eat. My Nut just kept saying eat moist protien. She said tuna, salmon, chicken all moistend with gravy or soup or light mayo. I have had a few bites of scrabled egg beaters, egg whites scrambled, tuna with light mayo, applesauce, and a little turkey on christmas day but I am a bit scared of much more... Cant wait to put a half a bannana in my protein shake. Any one know when I can do that? -
Woke up w/ sore throat and surgery is tomorrow
twoboysandagirl replied to daezeey's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got a sore throat two days before my surgery, I prayed and prayed I wouldnt get sick and even though it hurt a little the day of surgery I was absolutely fine. I think it was also allergy related but I know how you felt I was so afraid that they would call off the surgery after all that I had done to prepare for it. So glad you are well and pray you have a speedy recovery. -
Been kind of hard with 11 people in my home for the last week lots of cooking and cleaning up after food. Never once felt hungry but my head remembers what some of that food tastes like. Just keep telling my self that one day I will eat again...still on liquids.

You really do look great. I think for many of us doctors have been some what of an enemy in the past. Must be nice to have a doctor on your side. You should be proud.

I hear you on the no sleep thing. I had a sweet old lady as a room mate at the hospital and she wanted to talk to me ALL night long. I hope you are able to get a little rest tonight and you'll be home to rest tomorrow. Congratulations, now just take good care of yourself and you can sit back and watch the scale drop.

How much Protein did you really get "in" during the first few weeks? I am just getting in around 50 and it is HARD. One week and one day out. I feel like I am failing and am going to loose all my hair or muscle. I have lost 12 pounds since surgery. I am not feeling dehydrated and although I will spend HOURS trying to drink a Protein shake I can drink Water and crystal light a lot faster. I dont mind the flavor protein I have (finally found one I like) it is just that my stomach feels to full or I get sick to my stomach and feel like if I take one more sip I may throw up. Advice Please.

Friday it was two FULL weeks since food has crossed my lips (other than jello and a small spoonful of greek yogart). It frustrates me that others are eating food like eggs at 1 week out. Oh well I am willing today whatever I am told to keep that scale moving down!

You have done so well! You look so happy in the after! Can't wait for the next update. -
Coffee, anyone?
twoboysandagirl replied to Cinderella's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My paper work says coffee is ok right after surgery as long as it is caff free. I havent tried any yet but maybe soon. -
Mini Me- You are less than a year out and you have lost SO much weight! You should be so proud of yourself! I am just getting started but I am sure that you will just suddenly have a big loss. Don't let those old demons torment you. You have had so many victories! Maybe this is just a chance to concentrate on how far you have come. Maybe you should dig out some old photos! Anyway, I know this will turn around quickly. Merry Christmas.

weight loss since surgery
twoboysandagirl replied to hope@50plus's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Great Job!!! Can you even remeber a time where you lost weight like that? After all this time of trying everything under the sun to lose weight! And this time it is gone for good! -

Can't stop crying....
twoboysandagirl replied to drysdale's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 8 days out too and I have had times when I thought what have I done (mostly while preparing food for my kids). I have not sailed through the recovery either and I am so tired but can't sleep. I feel like I am not getting better and I am going to be weak forever. My husband says he can tell I am getting better each day. I just feel like it is taking forever! I am sorry you are having such a bad day. I keep telling my self the FAT HURTS (not just physically) but SKINNY FEELS SO GOOD. Hope tomorrow is a great day for you! Let us know how your work day goes. -
So tired of waiting....
twoboysandagirl replied to creativeteach's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sorry I know how hard it is to wait and it felt like forever for me too. It took almost a year for me to find the right surgeon and complete all his requirments and then I was so mad I had to weight several months after all that for a date. It will happen dont give up! -
