I am 2 weeks out, and feeling good, but just wishing that the next 4 weeks go by fast so I can get my 1st fill. I am following the Dr.s diet, and I feel that I could eat more. I limit myself to the proper portion size, but don't feel any restriction. I guess I am being impatient. All good things come to those who wait, right?

You get to chew gum? I was told no more gum or drinking from straws. Crazy how Dr.s orders are different from each others. :)

If you swallow gum with the band it's bad. That is why some say no gum chewing. I do, but am careful.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
