  1. I'm a little anxious about getting to solids also. I'll be happy to have something that doesn't have to be pureed first. I am also worried about getting something stuck... I even had a dream about it only I woke up before I found out whether I got the food out or not. LOL :smile: I probably sound pretty silly. An egg with mushrooms and ff cheese sounds wonderful and pretty safe. I can't to see what the doc says tomorrow at my first follow-up appointment.
  2. I hope you are right! I also hope we have as easy as a time as you did. It's nice hear about those who say they didn't much to complain about. :eek: I also try to remember too that everyones pain thresh holds are different. My hubby moves around a lot when he sleeps so I'll for sure be using an extra pillow or two for protection. :crying: Thanks for the info.
  3. Hi HunnyBunny! I'm new around here too. I'm from Missouri, have been married 22 years and have two kids (my baby is a Senior in high school this year). I see that you and I share the same band date. I think most of us newbies feel the same waiting for the band, I know I do. I hear the gas is really bad afterwards from surgery itself. I figure if that's the only "complication" I have I'll be happy. The nurse told me during my pre-op test last Thursday to just belch and walk, belch and walk. :thumbup: LOL I'll do whatever it takes to get rid of it. I had my gallbladder removed about 18 years ago and the only thing I remember about it was the gas too. Good Luck on Tuesday! :smile2:
  4. I know how you feel! My surgery date is 10/14. I'm really anxious about the surgery itself. I've had two unrelated surgerys before... last one over 15 years ago. I'm older now I guess and it just freaks me out. Also, I started my 2 week pre diet last Tuesday. Slimfast for breakfast and lunch; ww or lien cuisine for dinner. Otherwise, 1 cup fruit per day. Unlimited jello, sf popcycles, coffee, tea, clear broth and crystal light. 2 c max diet soda, skim milk or sherbert. --- I snuck in some cheese on a couple different days... Do any of you think this will really hurt anything? I know it's to shrink the liver but I have done near as much food damage as I used to. :tt1:

    Acckk!! A week away!

    I feel the same way! My surgery is on the 14th. I'm excited :smile: and scared too! I'm scared of the surgery itself, I'm afraid of the things that I've heard can happen afterwards...the mucus, the slipping, pbing. Is there such a thing at TOO MUCH research?? I'm excited about the potential I have to lose this time! My hubby and I, my best friend and I like to go out to eat. We did that way to much. That will change now and part of me isn't sure how I feel about that. I worry about things being different with my hubby and my friend. So much of our time has been about FOOD. My doctor requires a two week liquid diet prior to surgery... slimfast for breakfast and lunch, WW or Lean Cuisine meal for supper. Water and other liquids are allowed. My hubby and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary by going out to dinner for my "last supper"... how bad is that? I want to change. I want to lose weight! I have to for my health!
