  1. @@nomorechubbybutt63 - blending it doesn't make it "healthier" IMO, just easier to digest. Are you post-op?
  2. @@my_new_lifetime - just like @@finediva said "enjoy the great nap and wake up to your new birthday" relax and do what they tell you at the hospital. walk as much as possible, hydrate and try to get off pain meds and go OTC as soon as possible. Happy Birthday!

    Food

    I waited, but the pureed stage was much better than the liquids - I won't deny that at all. I SOOOOO badly craved a scrambled egg with cheese and it was divine when I did get it on the 3rd day post-op.
  4. I don't remember it being on my list but as long as it's a liquid at this point I would stick with water and called nut and get clarification. I don't think it's considered clear but at least it's a liquid and should be through your body pretty quickly.
  5. if you have other health issues like HBP, sleep apnea, pre-diabetic lot of insurances will give approval and the BMI isn't as crucial at that point.
  6. broccoli and cheese and cream of chicken both strained. I liked egg drop soup at the liquid stage too.
  7. @@mb1o27 check with your NUT. scrambled eggs was what I had for my first real food. I was on pureed or soft on day 3.

    Constipation?!?!?

    miralax is what I add to my coffee, Protein drink or yogurt just about everyday. I have also bumped up my Fiber intake and that has also meant more calories (200 roughly more per day). My weightloss has slowed a bit I think because of the slight increase in calories but I hated the feeling of "fullness" that the miralax didn't quite help.
  14. I am happy to be out of the 42k's and into 38Fs!

    Who Did You Tell?

    I kept it to just a handful of people at work. now I am getting asked daily what I am doing to lose the weight. I have since Friday of last week told anyone who asked me about my WLS. I have only had 2 tell me horror stories so far about their wives bypass.....

    Nothing tastes good

    I season the neck out of everything I eat. I don't salt everything, but I do add chili pepper, wasabi, black pepper, ms dash etc.

    Swimming incision question!?

    mine was healed and glue gone about 2-1/2 weeks.
  23. sorry kid I agree with the others. I think up did rush into something and now you have buyers remorse. so.....are you gonna lose the weight you have put back on by going back to basics as a sleever or just sit back (not workout like us old farts do, right) and whine about it. old people over 45 like me do workout, lift weights and eat right to help the tool we chose as a WLS patient.
  24. I have used both RTD and Protein mixes and haven't had any issues with bathroom trips. Did you mix fruit or juice with the protein mix? I was thinking too much sugar causing the urgent trip to the loo! I either mix with yogurt, Water or skim milk. I occasionally has put an ounce or so of juice for flavor (orange juice) to plain yogurt.
