I'm so relieved everything is ok!

I actually had similar happen after my c-section years ago. It was a build up Fluid internally and it essentially "burst" out my incision. I actually called 911 because so much was pouring out of me (literally) I thought I was about to bleed to death.

So, don't freak out if it starts to bleed again. Mine actually oozed for a month on and off.

Glad you're doing well :wub:

Floridays, it's really awesome that you are giving us the play by play on the surgery ... I "need" it having dropped 269 so far but still dropping. Really worried about doing it so helps to get a trusted person posting ; )

Thanks

Thanks Mis. I appreciate it...I figured it wasn't life threatening but when it wouldn't stop I knew I should see the dr... Just glad it didn't come out the incissions.

      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.
