Hi! Wow, sorry it took so long time to get back w/ you, but I just realized I had a message. I was supposed to be banded on 9/28. But unfortunately I got sick on the 27th & was hospitalized for 4 days. Now I am sched. to have surg on the 10/19 & am struggling w/ liquid diet this time because I think the diet caused me to get ill in the 1st place. After starting my 10 day liquid diet, I had 6 days of horrible diarrhea. On day 8, my sugar dropped, i got really sick, vomiting, nausea, back pain & Left lower abd pain. Day 9, while working, nearly passed out, vomiting, nausea, back & abd pain. Went to ER, my potassium was really really low, & CT later, I have diverticulitis.I had not had corn, seeds or nuts. I think diarrhea inflamed my bowels. So, considering I believe the liquid diet made me sick to begin with, it is really hard for me to get into it. I lost 12 lbs originally doing the liquid diet. & I have not gained any back. So how much weight have you lost so far?
