I'm psyched out its tuna fish and cracker day!!! I don't ever remember being this psyched about tuna fish before...guess that what happens when you lived on liquids for so long.

Yesterday I had oatmeal and a little bit of bake potato. That went well...now hopefully this does!

Meanwhile my family feast on Popeyes fried chicken

Let me know how it goes with the tuna fish - I'm a little leery to try it.

I wish I could still do tuna fish, but for some reason I've lost my taste for it. I've tried it about ten times now, and just can't get jazzed about it. Used to eat tuna sandwiches somewhat often before surgery. SO ODD!

I just had my 3 week surgeon meeting, got a few stitches out and was told 2 more weeks of Full Liquids.

I knew internally that I had more weeks of full liquid, but I threw some packs of tuna in the fridge in long awaited anticipation. I of course eyed the jar of pickles longingly, but thinking I may get to have tuna tonight I almost got over my pickle fascination.

July 9th I'll be 5 weeks out and then...I'm going for the Tuna. It will be the first thing I try for sure. She is allowing me 1% cottage cheese pureed and lightly cooked scrambled eggs. She said just a little bit to see how I do.

Unfortunately, I'm struggling with Protein shakes, and I am back to having to do Isopure.

So hopefully in 2 weeks I'll get to make a yahoo it's Tuna Day post!!

Enjoy your tuna!!!

Well the tuna agreed with me! Yay!!!!!!

Now, I could only take about 4 bites of what's in that cup, mind you. At this time, it looks like that cup will last for many meals, lol

I've been able to eat eggs, oatmeal, and bake potato so far, but not much. Still getting majority of my Protein through shakes.

shakes and I are not agreeing with each other. I thought I was getting through the hump, though I LOVED my Protein shakes pre-sleeve, but this morning was 2 sips down one wanted to come up and I battled it. Not sure what it is, but hoping I wake up one day and the issue is gone and I can go back to my shakes.

Glad the tuna went down well.

Curious? Why are you on liquids? I see you have a 77lbs loss? How far along post-op are you?

I had tuna tonight too! Family had green salad w/tuna on theirs. I got the hot and spicey tuna packet, used a little ranch dressing, finely chopped some of the cucumber and put some shredded colby/jack in it! Yummm! Only managed a few bites of it but it was sooo good and I was eating w/my family and what my family was having!!

Phatdivabbt: I do the Basic Bootcamp by LilMissDiva. I will drink my Protein Drinks and drink a lot of broths from homemade Soups and things. It helps get away from the sugar cravings that I sometime feel. :) This is for 2 days. Check it out by doing a search, I would post it here but I just had my computer serviced and I can't get my office word to work. Hove to call Microsoft. ;)

      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.
