Sometimes it's rotten being a woman. You missed one, now your body is making up for it. Rapid weight loss along with surgery throws your body in for a loop and now it is revenge time. Don't worry, Aunto Flo like all relatives will go away. But...how are you doing besides that?

From what I read most of us got strange "visits" after surgery. I had the aunt over right after it and then 2 weeks later. Our bodies have to deal with a lot of stress don't worry too much about it, she'll go away.

Well, at least I'm not alone! LOL! I think she'll be gone in a few days, but sheesh!! LOL! I have pcos and haven't had a cycle on my own in YEARS, so I'm not complaining too much! This is my second "aunt flo" this year and I'm actually thrilled! We're hoping to have another baby without using fertility meds....this is a good start! Other than mean old "aunt flo", I'm doing really well! I'm almost down 50 lbs! 3.4 lbs to go to make my first goal!! WooHoo!!!! Thanks, Ladies!

      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.
