So it's been a bad day.



Recommended Posts

For several days now i've been concerned about a slip. I have an appointment with the doc tomorrow @ 4:30 but today I woke up with my stomach feeling...very different. Almost as if i've been nausious all day and I have been burping quite a bit. I have convinced myself that I have slipped my band, I can't think of any other reason why I would feel like this. It's been about 6 months since i've gotten my band and have learned to do good with it. Learned how to make it work for me and now I fear as if it's messed up and won't work for me anymore. This is not good...*sigh* Thanks for letting me vent.

I'm so sorry you're feeling lousy; good move on calling your doctor! Best wishes that your tests come back normal and it's just...well, something else. Good luck!!

I hope everything works out for you. Maybe it's a stomach virus or something? I know it's strange to have happen in the middle of summer, but some bug is definately going around my town right now. Did something else happen that makes you think you have a slip?

Everyone in my family but myself and dh have a stomach virus. Our help at the store has been calling in sick right and left, so maybe that's what is wrong. I wouldn't worry until you have something to worry about.

      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.
