Six Weeks ago I got admitted for another asthma.flare.up and because of the steroids it causes increase appetite an thirst the doc emptied my band so in six Weeks I feel like I did so much damage but when I went to him to get filled I was down three lbs suprisingly, ive been.stuck in the.240s for what.seems like a.long time now, so im hoping being restricted again I can break the curse of the 240s & keep losing. Part of my problem is I am afraid of.exercise im scared to have another asthma.flare up but I think if I do what he says by staying indoors.to work out it will be better. Just need inspiration to get my butt back into gear, please leave motivating positive comments here! Sorry for typos im on.my.phone lol

I also have asthma...but keep my rescue inhaler with me at all times and especially when I am exercising. I usually am indoors...either on my recumbent exercise bike or in an indoor pool for Water aerobics class.

I have had asthma since I was a young child, though I did have around a 20 year long hiatus from flare ups until this past winter. It nearly caused my surgery to be postponed again. I've made it a life long pursuit to not allow it to restrict my life to the greatest degree possible.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
