I eat hamburger- a couple bites- chili- I made chicken salad (no noodles)- Soups. Their the bad thing is it was my bday and there I was- eating slivers of cake. The last time I felt like ceap because I had just ate lunch- figuring I would not be able to eat as much. I was right but I felt like crap. I don't get dumping syndrome. I just get the good old' guilt like I had pre surgery. I'm so scared I won't be able todo this- its crazy! So I parked my butt on my couch and made myself drink my Powerade zero instead of grazing and now I'm waiting on meatloaf. I won't touch the potatoes. It's the sweets that get me

Wendy's chili is good and cheap! Had the same large container all last week for lunch and then some. Tastes just as good in the blender if you are still on puréed foods.

Omg it does lmao I gave up and just make a big thing of chill and freeze it in Little 2 ounce containers. Had it all day today kids like it so that works. The strangest thing I'm no longer lactose intolerant after surgery 0.o . I was big time before but now mm milk is good lol. In all I'm doing really well Wednesday will be my three weeks.

Feeling pretty bummed......[/quote']

What cold medicines are we allowed to take? My throat and chest feel raw. I hope you feel better soon!

I don't think there are limitations on what we can take as long as the pain reliever is Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and not an NSAID. I'm taking Robitussin but it just isn't working as well as it usually does. I'm wondering if it's because the medicine doesn't stay in my stomach long enough or something......

Hope you feel better soon too :)

Um I have a few all from Celebrate. It all started with my first cheat- I gather that moderation isn't something I can handle. Tomorrow I'm going to really try to avoid any extra carbs. I can't do it.

You know, in the baby food section there are what they call Toddler Foods and they have these cheese puffs that are whole grain and low fat and really good. Maybe not quite as good as Cheetos but really pretty good. My granddaughter loves them.

These are the ones - http://www.vitacost.com/gerber-graduates-lil-crunchies-mild-cheddar-1-48-oz

And while there is no Protein in them they also are very low in fat and carbs. 16 cheese curls have 2 grams of fat and 4 carbs. Made with 100% whole grain corn and 30% less sodium than regular cheese puffs.

      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.
