does anyone know what to do about the kezaysim that need to be eaten and drunk at the seder?? is there a way to deal with it bc of medical issues or is a loosening required?

aaaaaaaaaaahh

HA! thats funny i'd rather have spagetti and meatballs!

i dont know bc i tried cheese curls and the went down so easily they literaly turn to liquid when you chew them...

hey im having such a hard time sticking to my post op liquid diet. first of all my surgeon gave me a hand out that said in huge letters NO JELLO. also i find that i can eat allot of food in quantity and in type. someone who has had the band for a while told me that the reason you cant eat solids in the post op diet even if it goes down -which by me it does- is because when theres chunks-no matter how well you chew!- the stomach moves when it digests it and that can cause a band to slip. this is prob only off the books but people told me that the eat cheese curls on the liquid diet bc it melts in your mouth as you chew it and turns to liquid....id love to know ppls thoughts on the matter....

thanks for the info longhorn - much appreciated!

whats the liver diet exactly?

hey lana, pcos is polly systic overian syndrom- basically the body cant break down sugars and there are many little systs on the ovaries which look very similar to fertilized eggs so the body thinks your preg. so you get cravings and weight gain like a preg person. some other common side effects are iregular period and exessive hair growth. its not fun. the doc give you a med (usually metformin or glucafoge) wich helps the body break down the glucose and then when you diet you should lose weight like a regular person but she told me thats not the case for me at all.....

mine requires 2 wks of slimfast 5/day and up to 2 cups of specified veggies
