Eva.. So glad you are doing better and yes it is so scary. I am too thinking about progressing into our new lives.

I was so scared yesterday. Was doing great and then started vomiting everything up including pains meds.

Oh no surgery sister! I'm so sorry you went through that. :(

Hi Ladies and Gents...So I am finally stable enough to be released this morning with some pretty strict instrudtions though. I had my surgery on the 12th in Mexico...which I don't recommend anyone doing. It is now the 23rd and after almost dying two times and some huge problems i am 18lbs down...walking...sipping water...two tablespoons of beef broth and able to tolerate oral medication for the pain nausea and other problems that came up. I am praying for everyone in this journey right now whether you have had your surgery or are still waiting.

It's funny how we know beforehand this is a lifelong choice but low and behold last night I sat in my hospital bed crying because the realization hit me. I know I am ready and even with the horror I went to through to get this is I would do it all over. Thanks to everyone on here who has been so supportive. I appreciate you all.

So glad to hear you're getting better & finally able to make it home! Be sure to follow those instructions so you will ok from here on out! Take care & God bless you!!

Just take small sips every couple minutes . If you drink too fast u will feel it trust me. It takes some time to feel the knew full. Don't worry just listen to your body. :)

Thanks for the welcome! I am excited to start this journey. I have been in liquids for 4 days and pretty tired of the lack of variety. Any suggestions?

      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.
