Fuze (dazed & con-fuzed)



Recommended Posts

I realized that I never shared this story on this forum (where I believe I first heard about the drink Fuze). This an excerpt from my blog on June 13.

This morning I was packing for my trip back home from Rhode Island. As I was packing I happened to be sipping on a very refreshing fruit drink. Unable to finish it I thought (in my infinite wisdom) this would be nice and refreshing to finish off during the flight back to Houston. So I conveniently placed it in a side pocket of my backpack as I was leaving the hotel room. The only problem as I was working my way through security?I noticed the TSA people were spending a great deal of time examining my backpack inside of the x-ray machine. The agent pulled me to the side reached into my backpack and pulled out my bottle of ?Fuze? and asked me ?What exactly is this?? I assured him it was just a beverage and was in no way related to THE ?Fuse? which originally created all the havoc over removing shoes for flights. I convinced them to simply dispose of the bottle or keep it for examination. I was allowed to proceed and I just made my flight. Lesson learned. However, I will say that if you have never tried a Fuze it is incredible. It has very little sugar and loaded with fruit juices and a variety of nutrients. Just don?t take it on board any commercial airlines!!! :confused1::huh0::wink0::)

Peace!

Greg

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
