Thank you everyone! Soup and conversation..got it!

I'm going on a date but I'm worried he will think something is wrong when I order a meal and take literally two bites and be done. I've lost 88lbs but I am still over weight so I'm just afraid he's going to think something is up at dinner. Anyone have any suggestions to make this as least awkward as possible?

For me, Benadryl took away the itch

SW 296 and I am 3 months out today CW 252. Couldn't have done it without the sleeve :-)

Congratulations on the loss! :-)

Maybe it's because I'm on liquids but I cannot stand listening to people eat and chew. It annoys the crap out of me! My place isn't that big and I can hear my son or boyfriend eat at the table and it grosses me out, I just want to walk over and smack the food out of their mouths. Sorry for my lame vent session Sincerely Bitter Betty

Sooo happy for you!! Also congratulations on the weigh loss so far! Can't wait until I get to enjoy solid food :-)

Thanks for support, these days are going by in slow motion. Can't wait for this liquid phase to end. :-/

It's definitely tough smelling the food my family is cooking, I almost get angry because I can't eat with them but you're all correct...this is temporary and mushie stage will fill my lil tummy. I like the mashed potato idea thx :-) Thanks for all your support. It is very much appreciated :-)

I am currently taking pepcid. I can't wait for mushies stage but you ladies are correct and I know sticking to my post op diet will be worth it in the end. Thank you ladies for the support! :-)

Getting my liquids in no problem but I'm sooo hungry for regular food. I'm daydreaming about chicken and seafood! A little part of me is wishing my last meal wasnt sushi, I should've went all out. Now I have to wait another week before starting mushies then 2 more weeks for regular food. :-/

Thx everyone, right now I'm just starving but I believe in what everyone says that everything will get better :-)

I went to the hospital and next thing i know im waking up post op room. I'm in so much pain, I'm taking it one hour at a time. I think the pain is from all the gas. I've been forcing myself to walk around the halls every 2 hrs and it helps.
