I have had five children, six surgeries, and four kidney stones. Oh, and a gallbladder full of stones. But every time a nurse walks in with tha damn rubber strip and a pack of plastic wrapped stuff, my blood runs cold!! I get so worked up inwardly of course, that my veins hide. Some roll, and I almost always end up with a needle in my hand looking for the vein that was just there. I can't stand IVs!!! When I had my stones, they got it in, and an hour later tried to get blood from it. Nothin would come out, or go in after. Those things suck!! Only one time was I ever lucky enough to get a tiny shot of lidacane (sp) before they put the IV in. That was saweet!!

It's funny because here in ND the hospital will page the medic if they can't get an IV. Really it's just about how many you do and if it's your day or not

Lunchable's are my best friend and I am almost 1 month out.

I only have 2 or 3 cracker sandwiches and I am done for 45 min. My surgeon said that allot of pts like the lunchables but reccommended putting your own together due to the sodium and fat content.

Wah!! And you can eat that one month out? How many?

I can only eat 2 or 3 crackers with meat and cheese before I'm done. And yeah my surgeon is pretty progressive.

      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.
