    Dealing With A Sweet Tooth

    Put hersey's kisses or nuggets in the freezer. When the urge hits, eat one. Because it's frozen it takes about 5 minutes for it to dissolve. Satisfies me.

    Struggling With Meal Plans

    I made a big pot of chili and got 1 cup ziploc containers. I put in freezer and take one for lunch. By the time I'm ready for lunch the chili has defrosted and ready to microwave.
  3. I mix mine tube with 16oz of Water. Easier to get down

    Drink From A Straw ???

    Here's crazy for you. I went to Florida on vacation 5 weeks after my surgery. I had to have sweet tea. I drank from a straw and didn't realize it until I was home 2 weeks and was trying to figure out how I was going to drink ice tea from dunkin donuts.
  5. I was banded May 24th. I flew to Fl on June 21st. Didn't notice any difference. No fills though

  7. Walk. Gas-x strips also. Walking seems to work the best. Even up and down the hall

    Upset About Sleep Apnea!!

    Sleep apnea does not stop you from having surgery. It becomes a reason to have the surgery. I found out from my sleep study that I "wake up" 69 times in an hour. The dr described it as someone shaking me awake every minute. My surgeon only required that I stay on it two weeks before my procedure.

    Hello, 5 Days Post Surgery

    Tried syntrax. Did not like it. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm hoping for puréed chicken and baby food fruits. I just need to hold out until Sunday.

    Hello, 5 Days Post Surgery

    Thanks, DeAna. I visited my primary today who sells Ideal protein. Got some cream of chicken soup with 21 grams of protein per serving. Fill a little more satisfied today.
