hi yoda, I would give it a little longer, Being weak is expected when your not eating much. Remember Mandi went threw this too, now she's talking about maybe another fill. So give it a bit, TAKE YOUR Vitamins. If you don't think your too tight, then I wouldnt worry, right now anyway.

(doc says it is caused from hi belly fat pressure,and maybe he should loose some weight:0

Hi Yoda, i know what you mean about the gurgling, i have it all the time since my last fill, it does not keep me awake mind you, but it does happen at at very inconvenient times. example when the doctor was checking me over the other day. it just would not stop, she asked me if i was hungry LOL.

I have no answer's for you on the weakness, maybe it just because you are not getting enough Protein right now. Hope it gets better soon for you. :hug:

Hi Yoda...gurgling...mine did it quite often post op...sounded like a big empty echo...a little embarassing, but it went away. I do still get it sometimes when I first lie down. Glad to hear (on my thread) that you are doing better and losing losing losing! Good for you!

OH yoda, i hate to say it, but are u overfilled? you sound almost as bad as i was. It's the not beinga ble to drink enough that causes the fatigue iin my opinion. I really think u should call the clinic and let them know wahts going on!

nah, I'm definitely not over-filled...I don't have the symptoms like some of you who have been over-filled have....and I can eat...just not a heck of a lot....(not enough of what I "should" be able to eat) but I think that will sort itself out.

I'm not in pain...just a little discomfort off and on.

You guys just SHUSH!!!!

BTW, was sitting on the couch watching TV tonight (about an hour after supper - which consisted of about 1/4 cup of beans) and I coughed (thinking it was just a normal cough) and OMIGAWD....my cough was actually an upchuck!! Poor Mr Yoda...I was yellin' at him to get a towel.....how horrible. So glad I was at home. Now I'm gonna be paranoid about coughing in public.

But, I'm not too tight.

Really....I'm not!

:rolleyes

I changed my ticker.....I lost 6 lbs since last week (that's what hardly eating will do for you....I'm not happy about that part but I will take the loss!).

So, that puts me past the halfway mark now...A huge milestone for me! I never thought I'd see the day! It took 9 months but I'm "halfway" now.....

This last week has been tough; still experiencing some odd problems with the upchucks but I think maybe those are really the PBs everyone has talked about (?) and what I used to call pbs were merely just the "slimes". That's my take anyways. I know things settled down for a lot of you who had this problem so I'll wait for a while longer and see what happens.

But hey.....OMIGAWD, I'm half way there...and ONEderland actually seems to be within a realistic reach now!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEP!

      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.
