Congrats' date=' i have to say my stitch is the bane of my existence. It is e excruciating and getting worse daily. How many days out were you? Someone told me yesterday that Dr Nicholson said it might take 6 weeks. I cried![/quote']

Mine popped on day 17 but I'm still a little sore and it's a little over 5 weeks.

I go to Dr. Nicholson's Plano office on 8/1 too for my 6 weeks check-up. I agree with everyone that the 2 week check-up was a waste of my time and gas money. I am writing down my questions as I think of them where I will be prepared to get every one of them answered before I leave. I also have that horrible pain in my left side but it was gone away. I never felt my stitch pop but I am assuming it did. I did fall of the porch about 2 weeks ago and fell hard on my right shoulder and hip and although I feel fine it really worries me that I did something to hurt my stitches or my stomach. My whole body was so sore from the fall for about a week and half and I had a huge bruise and knot in my shoulder. Probably needless' date=' stupid worry but......[/quote']

I got 8/1 too!!

Hey! Nice to meet ya' date=' maybe we passed each other in the halls. Idk about you, but I am SO ready to eat food Monday! Really really tired of liquids.[/quote']

Amen to that. I went shipping for stuff this Tuesday. I've never looked forward to applesauce or some lunch meat in my life. I was ok the first two weeks but this last one has been more of a struggle.

Hey all, since we all used Dr. Nick I assume we are local. I have a can of Unjury chicken broth and a can of strawberry Protein Powder. Each I have used maybe two or 3 times and just didn't like them. I still use the chocolate and love it. The chicken broth is not bad but I really don't like barely luke warm and it can't be heated past 140 degrees.

If anyone would like them, let me know we can meet some place if you like. I hate wasting and I know I will never use them.

Free to good home. :)

      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.
