Recommended Posts

Hey all, this is not a rant or rave, just a talk. . today i lost my crown (on the tooth, not on the head! hahahah) and cause it's sunday, talk about not being able to eat. . . i should lose another 5 lbs here. . . Tiffy, I took your advise this morning and took Nexium, killed my hunger completely! Drank Protein Shakes and such since i couldn't chew. . .kept really busy too. . . mowed the lawn, washed the clothes, cooked hubbie dinner, vacuumed, etc. . . drank alot of Water too. . . I've posted an album of myself as well when i was at my heaviest. . I'll get some photos going of myself here soon so we can compare ok? enjoy!:tongue_smilie:

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh icky, I can not tolerate mouth pain. I've had serious pain in every other region of my body, but tooth/jaw pain is something I can not handle. I hope you can get it fixed soon. I had a root canal in October. Worse experience ever in a dentist chair.

I am so glad the Nexium helped the hunger. I thought people were crazy when they talked to me about it too. I was like "whatever, that makes no sense" but dang they were right.

I'm checking out your album, and excited to see your progress pics ! ! !

Yippee the crown is back in my mouth! Had the dentist appt at 3 pm. I'm sitting here now waiting for it to really set in well. . . feels so much better. . . oh and i weighed myself on my new scale and did lose about 5 lbs! how cool! but i'd rather not have the toothache, i really don't like dentists at all. . .

      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.
