PB2 is Peanut Butter. I've just read about it here. Supposedly it tastes exactly like regular PB but has way less calories. I looked it up the other day and also saw that they have chocolate peanut butter. Yummmm,mmmmmm.

I didn't get steri strips on my incisions. My were superglued shut. Crazy? I was sleeved on the 20th and the glue is peeling off now. I had the sleeve, gallbladder removed, and hiatal hernia fixed. I was sore when I moved for week, then I was so happy it went away. Then what happened, I had a coughing attack on Saturday and the pain is back. I seemed to have pulled the muscle or something.

Now that I am done whining, I love my sleeve!!

      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.
