I am so sick today.

I could go without eating until tomorrow. It feels like I have the stomach flue, but without the fever.

I've been avoiding carbs, but I think I need some crackers or something.

Has anyone ever experienced this?

DreamLife,

We must be psychicly linked or something! I had some sort of bug over the weekend. I pushed the chicken noodle Soup Unjury for my Protein and fluids and ate a few saltine crackers. Today was the first time I ate any substantive food in 24 hours and it feels like a brick is in my stomach (I think I ate too soon). I would suggest you contact your doctor to make sure it's a stomach flu and nothing else, but after that, I would suggest a few crackers and Liquid Protein until it passes. Hope you feel better.

WOW Deevah! sorry to hear that you are sick too.

I feel like I can puke any minute and Im making frequent trips to the bathroom. I have no desire to eat anything other than crackers, I had a few baked chips, but that's it. I think I will drink Water and eat chicken Soup like you said. I totally know the brick in the stomach feeling. I will see how I am feeling in a few days, but if Im not better, I will call my Dr.

      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.
