That is awesome! I didn't get to do that for a while after mine, but it looks like my doc has longer time lines than other doctors. Enjoy the soft food!

I got soft foods 5 weeks out. I would give myself a treat by getting Soup from McCalisters once a week and liquefying it. So one meal a week was something tasty and yes I asked my dr before doing it lol.

I have an off topic question for you! I have my surgery in a month and found out it is scheduled for 10 days before on of my buddies is coming to visit me. How are you feeling 9 days out? Do you have energy and feel you could entertain?

Thanks!

Good to hear you are doing better Rissy.

Donny,

I'm 9 days post op and I could entertain. May not be like it once was with multiple trips to "breastrants" for wings like it has been in the past. But I have plenty of energy to entertain.

I'm 7 days out and I dream of this day.

I don't think so. To each their own. I'm day 8and just barely making it around because of the loss of calories. I'm drained. I would not want to socialize for any reason up until this point but I'm starting to feel better today

The only thing I had a problem with was a Tomato sauce that I had the other day. It gave me bad reflux, other than that I can tolerate anything.

      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.
