Are you using Gas -X for gas? I find it works very well, and very quickly. By the way, I live in Sayreville as well!!

Hey! That's awesome you're from Sayreville too!! Maybe we can all do a meet up one day!! Yeah I'm using gas x. It does work but I guess not as well as I had hoped. My gas pains aren't unbearable they're just uncomfortable and annoying

I'm finding now that the gas pain is really coming from the amount of food in eating. I'm guessing that's a sign. I'm on stage 3 now, eating mushies... And even though I'm eating the recommended amount from the nutritionist, sometimes it's still too much. As soon as I feel a little gas, I stop eating... This seems to be helping! And as far as our proximity, we should all find out whet we live and hand out one day... We could all go out to dinner and order from the kids menu!!!

A friend of mine has her surgery at Barix. I had a consult there years ago but wasn't "ready" for the life change at that time. Best of luck.

If everyone meets up, let me know!!!!

My surgeon gave me a prescription for 40mg of omeprazole a delayed release capsule, which helped with the gas bc I was depending on gas-x entirely too much! What a difference. I had my surgery on 12/17/13. SW 267 CW 226

      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.
