    Burping?

    Yes - I burp, hiccup, and/or get a runny nose. Haven't figured out why the runny nose - does anyone else get this?
  2. So sorry you are feeling bad. But as others have said, hang in there. On my 5th day after surgery I thought I'd never feel good again. Then I woke up the next day feeling sooo much better - just literally overnight! The heating pad on my left shoulder really helped. Also, I really didn't want much food, but drank lots of juice and soup/broth. V8 makes a squash soup that I really liked, and the flavor satisfied me. Good luck!
  3. Sometimes when I eat I end up with funny gurggly sounds in my upper regions! It's almost like a growling stomach but it's in my throat and upper chest area. When this happens, I feel a little like food is stuck - but it's not really. Has anyone else experienced this?
  4. to never get "stuck". Nope - I got beef from a healthy choice dinner stuck. Oh, the pain of it all. I finally found my papaya extract in the bottom of my purse, then had to struggle opening the new bottle, and finally chewed up two. Don't know if that did it or the struggling to get to it, but it worked. I did have a small BP and the dreaded slime I have heard about. Hope this never happens in public! Anyone with any fun stories to tell (sarcasm)? :thumbup:
  5. I got some at Rite Aid Drugstore
  6. My doctor allowed me to drink it right away. I must say though, for some reason it doesn't taste as good.
  7. Does anyone eat "diet" meals such as Healthy Choice, Lean Cuisine, etc? Do they have too much food in them? I haven't had my first fill yet, and am having trouble figuring out how much I should be eating.
  8. I love chilli, so I bought some at Wendy's and threw it in the Magic Bullet. It tasted like chilli but the texture was a little weird. BTW, everyone whould own a Magic Bullet - makes great protein shakes, smoothies, etc.

    2-3 weeks post op and gained weight

    I agree with Minimeme - it's likely to be water weight. I have been on soups and lovethem, but they are very high in salt. I'm going to have to change that habit!!

    Thanks! I had all the tests I need today - ekg / stress / blood work / upper GI. I am so looking forward to getting this show started. Looks like you've done well - keep it up! How did yoiu get the cute ticker tape? I went to the website but couldn't figure out how to attach it to here.
  11. I am just getting started. I have my appointments for EKG, blood work, stress test, etc. day after tomorrow - Wed. 9/22. My surgury is scheduled for Sept. 8. My friend and I are doing this together - hoping that will make it easier for each of us!
  12. Good luck! Mine will be Sept 8 - can't wait
