So how is everyone doing that had their surgeries last month? I am I month in two days and doing ok. My biggest issue is not being able to tolerate room temp Water, but I'm figuring that out with ice chips, shaved ice and frozen water water bottles. I've lost 24 pounds since surgery so far. Was hoping for 30 but I'm not complaining! I am still not dropping sizes like I expected either - that frustrates me more. Was size 24 and now I can wear some size 22 tops and rare bottoms. That's after an over 35 pound loss total - go figure!

I'm thankful that I made it through month 1 and I'm not dealing with the pain. I've had my dumping experience, and vomiting foamies.

Now I'm worried about lack of Water, calories and Protein. Why is it we can only drink Water with lots of I've?? Is there a Protein Bar that can help instead of a shake that isn't covered in chocolate? What about nuts? Scramble eggs with turkey bacon? I'm ready to add something else beside oatmeal and cottage cheese. Or at least another Protein.< /p>

      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.
