I miss Moscato D'Asti but I fear carbonation discomfort. I'd hate to end up wasting a bottle.

The moscato doesn't seem to bother me. It's a teeny bit bubbly but not really carbonated. I took a sip of Diet Coke not that long ago (oh, how I *still miss my Diet Coke) and it immediately made my diva of a sleeve upset. But the moscato? No problem. Of course, I can barely have a couple of ounces...but it's enough to make me feel like I'm not missing out on anything when everyone else is drinking a glass of wine or otherwise enjoying a drink.

Remember guys no matter where u go there is an average 0.08% 30 day mortality rate. To put the number in context that is lower than the average deaths after having your gallbladder removed. This is a very safe procedure but there is still a chance or complication or death.

I'm a fan of more info, not less. Obviously I'd prefer it if everyone has high morale standards and inner peace, so only the balanced truth was shared - but this is life and things get messy.

We all need to do our own research and this forum should only be a small part of that.

And the vets forum? And groups, such as 5:2?

Oh good grief, forgive me. Groups are started by members, they control who may or may not post in them, not Alex or myself. The Vets forum was also created for specific reasons, but really, is that what this thread is about, to nit pick every little thing? Enough already people.

Am I the only one in this thread concerned about these other deaths that the OP has mentioned? MULTIPLE DEATHS???? This has already been stated as fact by the OP and one other poster in this thread has repeated it as FACT.. and yet it is unsubstantiated. I think all potential patients deserve to know the exact details....and no I'm not talking about personal details that would invade the privacy of families, but simply when the deaths occurred, the hospital where they occurred, the name of the doctor and the cause of death.

Like you I have been waiting for the proof. If its true then that is obviously something potential patients should be aware of. If its not true I would like an explanation of why such a lie was thrown out there.I can think of only one reason for that.

You have repeatedly asked for more info from the OP. Your requests don't appear to have even been acknowledged.

How do you differentiate between real and those who create discord?

This thread is draining and a bit alarming. Frustrating.

C'mon. A life was lost. We have an OP with dubious motives. Let's just let it be. What on earth is being accomplished?!?!

Okay, this thread has run its course. I am locking it. Nobody is interested in hearing any more of the name calling, accusations or anything else. That is not what we are here for. Feel free to take your ridiculous arguments to pm.

And, just one additional word of warning, don't even think about starting another thread just so you can continue the arguing. Anyone who does so will be banned.

      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.
