At least you are happy about not being hungry!!! Is the jug little and brown?? lol I know you got that! lol I still have most of my little brown jug from surgery. I think I took about 2 maybe 3 doses. And I took them at nite.

I'm glad you got fixed. Maybe, I need to clairfy that last statement. Naw, you know what I mean. lol

If you need anything, I'm just a phone call away!

later,

lisa

That's cool. Did the procedure bother you much? Details, woman. Did it take long? What time did you get there?

I'm glad you are gardening. Mine isn't even broke up yet. That may be a good thing. Looks like we may be in for a rough night tonite. I'm still having trouble with head hunger. I wish I could whoop that.

have not heard from jana in a while and she wasn't at the meeting

i just flower garden i don't do veggies i have really enjoyed the master gardener class my hubbie and i are both taking it we graduate on march 8 but then have to do 50 hours of community wk before we are actually certified mg.

the procedure took a little longer than i thought it would i think i went into or room around 7:30 and was in recovery around 9:15 and left within minutes after that. i am just sore but nothing llike the orginal surg. i think i remember dr k saiying she fill it up good and i'm pretty tight but i'm doing mainly liquids today and its hard to tell how tight nothing was said about a follow up visit i guess i will call mon and get appt in 5-6wk in case i need a fill

hey lisa just read on the other board bout your meds that is GREAT

i know the head hunger is bad really try to get that protien in hard Protein not just shakes that fills the little tummy up and helps a lot longer

and stay busy i guess those 2 things are the only advise i have to pass along.

Not much to report today.... Tanner was out of school today, so I wasn't online much. I do have a few things to report today ...... I did several things. Played basketball, dodge ball, kick ball, and rode my bike today. And I tried to clean house. Gave up on that! Think I got my exercise in??? And the number one thing to report today, I hate my scales!!! They aren't moving as fast as I want them. Well, I'm off for the rest of the nite, catch you tommorrow, k?

      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.
