Doing good, everything went well! Had a fever and had to stay a little longer than usual.

Can not do Ensure at all!!!!!!!!!! I do well with the carnation instant Breakfast no sugar added and skim milk. Once I go to see my surgeon next week I want to use the silk milk unsweetened, instead of skim milk. That will give me more Protein.< /span>

I'm tired just took my vitamines and cacium. All I seem to want to do is sleep! But, I'm making myself walk, and writing my post. May Father GOD Bless you always.

Too funny -- I thought that was the pic you were saying was a good pic because it gave people an idea of what the unit looked like ... HA

I think the ones Size7 or DebKing posted REALLY give you a good look at the room and the unit.

Glad you finally figured out why he looked so familiar! :shocked4:

Different doctors, different post-op diets -- Mine was 10 days clear, 10 days full (that's where the milk comes in) and 10 days mushies ...

      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.
