Thanks for the links! Are you able to get all your Protein and Water in? I keep reading where people even further along than us are having problems. I have been able to since day 7. Do you think this means that my stomach could be stretching already? It has only been 9 days.

I think some of that inital stuff is swelling. I doubt you could have stretched your tummy out much just yet!

Teresa I was just thinking about you and wondering how you were doing? I finally get to have mine done on Thursday. It is so nice to kind of follow you and Anna to kind of see what is coming next. Hope you have a great day!

YAY, on the surgery date! I am so happy for you. I am doing well, today is the first day of the "mushies". I had a 1/4 cup of cottage cheese. I have heard that is supposed to fill you up but it did not me. I have been so darn hungry for a week. I have tried swirching antacids but no luck. I guess that is part of the adjustment. Some never get hungry again and I am wishing that for you. Don't worry about the surgery, the pain is not that bad. I think I might have even emailed you the day of my surgery. Please keep us posted. The weight DOES just seem to melt off so far. WoooHoooo

Hey Theresa,

I just ate my first "mushie" I pureed 2 oz of wendy's chili down to nothing. I ate about half of it and can eat no more. Sorry the cottage cheese didn't do it for you. I'll try that tomorrow.

      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.
