Thanks everyone, I know it will pass.:wacko:

I had a popscicle

:hungry: I had to go to a pot luck supper for my daughter's group thingy. Anyway. I put food on my plate . Moved the food around, Put my fork(empty) in my mouth so people would think I was eating, nobody questioned me. weirdos!!!:wacko:

I ate broth it was so good. And apple juice make me run to the bathroom. Who knew you'd poo when you don't eat solids!! oh ya babies poo and all they have is milk. just thinking out loud.

Someone else called for my husband a credit card company trying to sell insurance on a credit card.

They are going to have my picture up soon.

The guy asked for my husband, whom is rarely home during the day. and then he never answers the phone when he is here. Any hoo, the guy says hello is mr lila home. I yelled Yes yelled no he is not here and he's not coming back, he doesn't live here anymooore!! and I hung up and giggled.:heh:

I'll be OK, really.:Banane23:

Yeah, I jokingly tried to have Kathy tell Mr Yoda that I couldn't have sex for six months!! It didn't work! LOL.

Real answer: anytime you want as long as you feel "up to it". In other words, the next day is okay if you want.

I wasn't told anything, it was about 4 days post-op for me.....both of us were being unnecessarily cautious though so it wasn't the best ever sex...LOL

Just about the only thing that I couldn't do for about 2 weeks was jump on the rebounder at my gym.

I am still hungry today =, but it is not as comsuming as it was yesterday. And last nite I had the worst gas. I wanted to sleep on my belly to help get it out. But it hurts still.

No telemarketers today. lucky them!!

Lila, can you kneel on your hands and knees, that might help with the gas.

And no, everyone, that is not one of the positions, well, I guess it is, but I could always do that one!!

Sorry, I don't mean to make anyone blush:biggrin1: .

Lila....walking really helped me move the gas. I tried Gas X, etc....but none really helped. Walking hurts sometimes because of the cramps in the lower abdomen, but trust me....the movement really helps.

Hi Lila,

Laying on my stomach is still a fantasy for me, my husband has to help me turn to get on my side, thanks I'm sure to the hiatal hernia I had.

As for the gas, I learned in nursing school (I was a CNA a ways back...) to lay in the "Left Sim's position" to relieve gas. Lay on your left side and a lean forward, lift your right knee (should be on the bed not "up") like a loose right angle. (Not promising your hubby won't see this as another opportunity, mine sure would. He would tell me " honey, just stay there, you don't even need to be awake for this") :)

      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.
