Yes, I have walked a lot today but I'm not overdoing it. Anything for the dry cotton mouth anyone?

I've tried cough drops, and they seem to work a little along with the G2 Gatorade.

Just keep sipping or chewing ice chips. I remember being sooooo thirsty and not being able to drink enough, it won't last long.

So are you a piano player? (icon curiosity)

If so, jazz, rock, concert? Just trying to distract you from the dry mouth!

As far as concerts, I use to play for a country groups at Dollywood and recording studios for a living. I also like to sing. But now I like to use my talant for God. :-)

this is the reason why I havent told my dad or my brother.. and I belive my brother does have it peirced so he cant say anything about that... but what I would to is.. (do they still have Office depots???) go buy a 3x5 card binder ring of the biggest diameter possible and tell him this is the one they used to test fit before the surgery... and leave it on his desk.

I bet you that he goes and tries it on... lol.

Good luck to you...

Stowesuka, yeah I understand what you're saying but I really had no choice but to tell him because he's my business partner, and if I just didn't tell him, I'm sure he would wonder what was going on after I didn't show up for 2 weeks. HAHA.But yeah that's a good suggestion and I might even try it! Thanks for the advice.

      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.
