No one is going to read past the first couple of lines of this post because they don't want to have to put a puzzle together to figure out what you are saying.

Maybe they are still on pain meds? I remember iggychic had some pretty wild posts when she was loopy from meds. :-).

I understood what you were saying but I agree with everyone else about the spelling.

Anyways, you gain weight from the IV that they put in you, but it should go away. Walk as much as you can and try to sip on Water, Protein, and liquids throughout the day. It's so hard to drink Water the first few days (I was there lol) but just keep trying. Maybe sugar free Popsicles and sugar free Jello might help as well.

Good luck! And don't be afraid to ask for help on here when you need it. Somethings seem stupid but most likely someone has been through it : )

Based on the way this user typed the date I am guessing they are not from the US, so the decoding may take a bit :)

Looks like OP is very young. It's a type of shorthand used a lot in text & twitter where characters are limited. It's their preference I guess, but if they would like people to read what they type, then it should be typed in long form rather than shorthand.

      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.
