Happy Birthday Girlfriend!!

I am glad you had popcorn. I was wondering about this myself, as I am going to the movies next weekend to see that new Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks movie and I would LOVE to have some!

My dietician said they put it on the no no list because it has a lot of Fiber in it and can cause a lot of gas. I am also not supposed to have Beans, but I do. Everything seems to give me gas anymore, so if I get gassy, OH WELL!

It is nice to know that it doesn't make people sick! I have not had any real issues with anything I have eaten this far, except chicken feeling stuck so hopefully I won't with the popcorn either! chicken works now tho!

I hope you had a fantastic day! Hugs!!

Happy Birthday Meggie! Hope you day was fantabulous! From the looks of your profile pic, you really know how to Celebrate :-) Here's to a great year and looking forward to seeing you at goal weight before your birthday next year!!

I'm glad you enjoyed the popcorn! I'm just a few days behind you, so you are almost always my bellwether, although our pre and post-op diets are very different. I've been mostly compliant on my diet, but I did discover that chocolate chips Cookies go down just fine. I baked some for my FIL last week and ate one small one per day for three days running. Thank goodness I didn't have access to them anyomre on day 4!!

My son loves popcorn as a snack. I get him the 100 calorie bags. Im six weeks out and I've had it. Although I haven't really had any complications either. Four days after surgery I was shopping so... I may not be the best gauge but if you can't hold on, realistically speaking, break the shell husk part off and eat the part without it.

Happy Birthday

      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.
