I was scared to buy this because it wasn't sugar free. You haven't had problems with it? I bought the Tylenol Jr Meltaways(Walmart Brand) grape flavored' date=' but I have to take 6 of them to get close to a 1000 mg. where did you find it because I thought they stopped making it. I can only find it at CVS(brand).[/quote']

My surgeon's office told us to stay away from anything that was rapid release.

Stick with it! I'm less then 3 Weeks out, and feel 100% (was even in a car accident the first week). It does get better ! The gas is uncomfortable, but walk, walk, walk! Congratulations on your new journey!

Well idk if u mean are we gonna drink because it's the holiday seasons my answer would be no to that, now my Dr office says wait 18 months after surgery, but I probably wont wait that long. To who ever drinks take a sip for me. Lol and how has life been since surgery for you? I hope all is well.

      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.
