Glad I'm not the only one with the scale problem. I only lost one pound last week and I'm not eatin anything at all. I am barley getting in my fluids. I wanted to cry in fact I did cry. was pissed @ my Dr. for making a big deal out of the 1 lbs loss. Now I am even more PISSED now that I now I'm not the only one it's happening to. Can't wait to see him next week. Imma chew him up n spit him out. I won't stay mad tho. He is a good Dr and I love his staff. They comforted my better than my boyfriend when I found out I found out I only lost a pound.

Hugs to you I know it is frustrating when you are doing everything right.

Hello all-

It has taken me awhile to post something since I have been busy with school and family. I will be one month post -op come Tuesday of next week and all is well. No nausea. No pain. No complications. All the food I am able to eat stays in my belly and I stay hydrated. I'm already down 20 pounds total this week. So including the weight watchers and surgery I've lost 74 lbs.

Does anyone know if the Facebook page was ever created?

So I started mushy stage with scrambled egg with cheese. Since I took 25 min to eat the eggs congealed a bit and were very cold by the time I was on my last bite. Not so appetizing!

Egg salad the next day much better. Spilled my Protein Drink so i ate a smal amount of cooked hamburger with blue cheese dressing chewed and chewed and chewed tolerated it well. Today egg salad for Breakfast then I crock potted skinless chicken breasts with broth onion and carrots then magic bulletted it. Plus I made a cauliflower casserole that was beyond yummy. All went down well I eat slow chew well( even though it's purreed) just for the practice. Also I follow the 30/30 rule which I must admit I thought would be way harder.

My doctor said not to treat wounds because it softens them and prevents healing. Only soap and Water. Take care

I'm three and a half weeks out and feel like I should be doing much better by now. Still not getting enough liquid or Protein. If I eat I can only take in a couple teaspoons. If I drink a lot, even small sips, it makes be nauseous. I'm not in any pain anymore but I feel bad all the time. I have no energy and my head hurts a lot. Any ideas???

I can tell you the headaches are because you are dehydrated. Can you try to suck on crushed ice at least. And maybe warm broth.< /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.
