I got roses and those aren't edible. Smart husband of mine....but we took my mom out to dinner and they had a wonderful meal and I packed my Jello and brought a boullion cube and the waiter gave me hot Water. I accidently used a straw taking my first couple sips of iced tea and realized what I was doing. Oops!!! No harm done though. Had a nice time and their food and desert didn't bother me in the least.

My husband showed up with flowers n a gorgeous Coach purse! I'm home more but feeling sore n gasy. A lil naucious too. When will it go away?

I was extremely nauseous yesterday and I couldn't even sip 2 medicine cup sizes of water... I ended up throwing up and being soooooo nauseous all night they kept giving me zofran (spelling?) but it would wear off in an hour! Not as much nausea today so have me lightly sipping a Protein shake... They think that a lot of the nausea was caused by the stuff I had to drink for the upper GI... I want to go home but I'm so afraid of dehydration and nausea! Anyone else having problems with liquids? ?

Did you have to drink barium for the upper GI? Was that your leak test?

Have you asked about phergan? Works better than zofran IMHO

Hello newbies Drujon and Evolving. I'm scheduled for the 26th and am on my pre-op diet. You can do this, Drujon! I know how hard it is to quit smoking, but you've got to keep your eye on the prize.

Emmy, I hope you start healing up and feeling better quickly. :( I can't imagine vomiting with the new stomach is any fun.

      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.
