After reading your post I tried a small amount of chicken w/gravy ...so far so good. I am so scared of over-filling my pouch.

Hey Rhonda, my doctor said just make sure it's finely chopped, and moist and eat slow. Glad you tried it.

I did after I got home bend wrong and split the incision in my belly button a little. It has stabbed over but has this happened to anyone else?

That's great news. I go Friday and am hoping to be able to start purée. I am tolerating everything well except my chewable Calcium which I just need to find a new one.

My surgeon says take Tums for your calcium.

I think all surgeons are different cuz my Dr had me start my Vitamins at my first week post op visit he had me start the calcium, multi vit, vitD, & B12 but I told him I was gonna start the Biotin also cuz I jus grew my hair out & im not tryna loose it.

      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.
