For those on soft foods...please tell me how do you get to your caloric goal? I can get to my protein goal with no problem but end up with an average of 450 which is not good because now that I have my energy back I'm very active running behind a hyper 2 yr old.

You look great! Im in your situation, can't get anything down...shakes are too heavy and sweet. Broth tastes weird, I lost my appetite. Sent from my LG-H872 using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm on my 4th day post op. Dr said I can now do full liquid diet. What's the difference? What can I eat besides broth, sugar free popsicles, sugar free jello and protein shakes?TIA Sent from my LG-H872 using BariatricPal mobile app

Why are you so upset? This site is to share info, knowledge and opinions. Sounds to me like you are one of the agents who are known to say exactly what you said. That its a tactic by a competitor. I find it offensive that we patients are treated as a herd a $ by these companies. That's why its so important to do research. Sent from my LG-H872 using BariatricPal mobile app

Sept 6 in Houston TX! Nervous and excited! Sent from my LG-H872 using BariatricPal mobile app

I can only speak from my experience...I had all the symptoms you had and the belt pain starting from mid to upper stomach radiating to the sides and elevated white cells. My diagnosis was pancreatitis caused by a blockage of the common bile duct. I had my gallbladder removed 8 years ago and apparently there was some debris left or the bile duct became too narrow and the gestational fluids were not getting out and helping digestion. I had mild symptoms of reflux for a few years but the weeks before I got really sick I was so bloated I looked pregnant. I felt full even though I hardly ate anything and I was constantly nauseated also had terrible headaches. By the time I made it to the ER I was told I was going septic and was in the hospital for 10days. I had to get a stent and could not eat or drink anything at all.

I am a caregiver and usually see a lot of jobs in a categiver's websites of people requesting help for 1-3 days after surgeries including pick up from hospital. Just something to consider. Sent from my LG-H872 using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm pretty excited! Got a call from my Dr. Letting me know they received my sleep apnea results and of course were positive. They sent a referral to a nut, cardiologist, and psych. I am told I need a clearance letter from my current psych because of my bipolar 2. I called my psych and she is happy to clear me and gave me an appointment for tomorrow. Nut already called and scheduled me for next week. EGD scheduled for July to check for hernias. Just need an appointment with cardiologist to get cleared. I'm super excited. Was anyone else asked for a current psych clearance? Where are you guys on your process? Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app

When I started looking into wls I was 38 bmi and needed two comorbities, which I have diabetes and recently diagnosed with sleep apnea. I am now at 40bmi. My question is does the 40bmi need to be documented for more than a year or does it not matter as long as you always been over 35bmi? Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app

I talked to the Dr's assistant today. I need to send over my records from pulmonary specialist and the sleep study results then they will schedule me for the nut and psyc eval. She explained about the 3 months / 3 visits with a nut insurance requirement. Let's see how it all goes. Faxing over records tomorrow. Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app
