i am 3 months out tomorrow and i rarely get cold sores, i got one last week on the left side of my lower lip, been treating it, now on my lower right side in the corner of my mouth i have another one started. has ne one had this problem? is it bc im lacking certain things? am i doing somthing wrong? HELLLP!!!

My surgery date was July 31st. Being a full month out I've lost 32 lbs weigh 230 since surgery.

I'm 4 weeks out and I'm wanting something sweet. Like a bite of cake or ice cream!! Even sugar free cookies I love them. What can I do???? Help plzzzzz

I have frozen raspberries n blackberries. I'm craving sweets n I'm 3 weeks out. What can I do w them for my cravings? Still not gettin all my protien n I forbid to do ne more shakes. I did mix my choc protien powder in w choc SF pudding. Yea to chocolatey. But I NEED fruit. Tired of tuna n fish n chicken. I eat way to much cheese now I'm bound up. Lol. I tried ham tonight. Yea I puked!!!! So ne suggestions on the raspberries n blackberries I have?

The rumbling is COMPLETLEY normal im 3 weeks out and it still rumbles. I had diareaha for bout 5 days. That's normal as well. Once u start ur purée stuff u will b solid again but make sure u take stool softners!!!

I'm 3 weeks out and I'm eating a pickle. Been craving them n I looooove pickles. I've taken a few lil bites I'm burping a lot but no dumping yet.

K I'm 3 weeks out Tuesday. The first week n half were hell. Went to the dr and he cleared me to do the purée diet or eat what I can tolerate. Well I have days where I'm sick n can't or don't wanna eat ne thing. Then I have my days where I'm hungry and I eat like a yogurt for breakfast lunch tuna or chicken salad and tonight I made a minni veggie pizza and ate the hole thing w no problem. I can tolerate pretty much everything I been tryin. This SCARES ME TO DEATH!!! I can eat sugar free ice cream no prob althou it's a couple spoon fulls. I'll eat nuts no prob. Am I over doing it? Am I gunna stretch my pouch? What do I do? HELP ADVISE???

I had to sign a thing stating I wouldnt drink for a year but I kno MANY ppl who drank w in 4 months and 6 months. But nothing to serious just one or two drinks but still bad idea. Just think of how u felt the next day after surgery and times that by 5 plus puking yea noooo Ty!!

Was in walmarts the other day looking for other sources of protien bc I'm having a hard time w the whey powder. Yuk. Ne ways I found these flavored sugar free or less sugar protien shots. They have bout 42 grams of protien. Has any one seen these or think I should try them??

I'm two weeks out today and I weighed myself tonight I've lost 28.7 lbs is that to fast to b loosing that much? I had a ruff time also w wanting to eat. I had to force myself most days. And still today I feel sick and weak. Can't seem to get my protien but my dr cleared me to eat soft foods but I just don't wanna eat. I ate eggs Monday seemed to gimme the fuel I needed for the day n I wasn't hungry for atleast 8 hrs.

I'm two weeks out today. And I have been scared to have sex nor have I had the urge to. But Sunday night was the first time since surgery and it was the best sex I ever had in a looooong time. Didn't hurt my stomach at all. So I guess it depends on how quick u heal. Good luck ladies!

I'm 4 days out of surgery came home yesterday. I feel weird like idk weather I'm hungry or not if I should intake some of my shakes? I been nibbling on yogurt but not cuttin it. I'm drinking lots of water thou. It's been to hot to walk outside. my arms n legs feel weak n shakey. idk if I'm not gettin enough in my stomach. Help

I'm 4 days out and sex is furthest from my mind. My god if someone touched me right now I'd punch em lol

Well I did it! The 9 day liquid diet is over and my surgery is tomorrow morning. I don't think I've ever been so scared in my life. Hopfully I feel good enough tomorrow night to let everyone kno how I am. I kno there r others who r having their surgery tomorrow so GOOD LUCK TO THEM AND EVERYONE ELSE ON THEIR JOURNEY!!

Thanx!!

That's crazy u say that bc my sinuses started to bother me 2 days ago w a sore throat. It started my second day of my liquid diet and I still have sinus pain and my throat.... I can't hardly swallow. idk what to do myself.

Ill be on day 5 in the morning. W 4 days to go. Lemme tell u it's been realllllly hard for me. I'm on 4 shakes a day but can have broth. Yogurt. Cottage cheese which I hate. IM STARVING. today was a lil better but I'm asking myself what am I gettin into bc right now I'm so misserable I wanna quit. I've cried for two days the rest of u have better will power then me. I HAD to eat somthing solid yesterday bc I was so ill n dizzy and I couldn't think straight it scared me. so that was my only fail n cheat. Hope y'all r better then me. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!

I'm on my liquid diet day 3 with 6 to go and I'm already misserable, very very hungry and my thought process isn't very good. I WANT TO STOP. AND JUST SAY SCREW IT!!! what am I getting myself into??? And on top of that. I started my period after 2 yrs of not having one. IM ABSOLUTLEY FREAKING MISSERABLE. No pain meds r working I cry constantly. I feel like I can't do this ne more and it's only 3 days in. What am I gunna do after surgery?? Am I gunna feel this hungry and misserable?

Thanx. Im glad to kno someone is just starting lol. I'm sure ppl all over r just starting. Being on my period isn't helping the situation either. So I'm 2X cranky and moody and so very emotional. All I did today was cry. but I kno it will b worth it in the end

thanx ladies. I didn't think it was gunna b this hard I just wish I could turn my brain off

Lemme tell u. I have the exact same problem. My so called best friend says all the negative things to me too. And one day I finally got tired of her crap and told her that its ok if she don't support me but she doesn't have to throw that neg wave my way. I made her kno that I'm ok w not being her friend bc true friends will not make u feel that way. In all honesty it's jealousy. Ppl see u making a change and their to darn sry to take that leap. My friend is bigger then me and always complains bout her bein fat n wanting to lose weight. But she's not doin ne thing bout it. she uses excuses after excuses. And frankly you just need to let ur friend kno that u dnt care what she thinks bc this is ur life. This is u adding years to ur life not her. if she can't respect u enough to let it go then let her kno ur willing to let her go! We r fighting for our lives to b healthy and No one is to stand in our way!! Tell ppl how u feel n feel good bout it bc it's ur life not theirs.

Rasp lemonade is my ultimate fav!!! And I got crystal light green tea w honey. Omg so good. I have to do my liquid diet for 9 days. Uhg I just hope I can do it. Being diabetic I get so hungry.
