Feeling somewhat relieved at my horrendously slow weight loss rate over the past 3 months... found out on Friday that my thyroid is seriously 'on the blink'... again. Hopefully things will kick off again when I get my T4 levels sorted.

Yes it's a magazine. Good to hear you have got to the bottom of your stalls. Hope it goes more smoothly from here on in.

Just had Milo for brekkie after having Lissa recommend it to me. Pretty filling! I added 2tsp Benefiber and 5 grams of Protein Powder just to boost the Protein a little. It's filling and not like an Optifast at all, and more protein than I usually get for Breakfast. The test will be whether it lasts all morning.

It stayed down but I got the runs 2 hours later. With my history I can't blame the milo or milk but will try with almond milk tomorrow. I am a bit hungry now at 10:15 though.

It's only two weeks! You can do anything for two weeks! Everything is different post-op and it won't be as hard then.

Saw my gp today had the dressings taken down sites all looking good told I could take some peppermint oil caps to help with gas! Found real chicken broth is nice during my post op time! Finding stuff to mix up and that I will tolerate during this Fluid stage hard!

      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.
