UGHHHHH today is the day. I've been having pain in my pouch and although the ulcer medication helped - it didn't cure the problem so my surgeon wants to scope me today :/ I hate hate hate needles and don't want to be here at all. He also wants to take blood today because I've been experiencing dizzy spells when i get up or bend down and I know I'm not dehydrated or low in Iron. Obnoxiously nervous because of the needles :[

All done - I have 3 ulcers which is actually great news because I thought it was my gal bladder which would have meant another surgery. On meds now. Man I felt rested after they put me out

Well they gave you something for your ulcers? You have great hair. You look all nice & slim to me. How much more to your goal weight?

Do the Dr have a clue as to what caused your ulcers?

Possibly my pot smoking, but I have a vape now so... mostly due to me being an idiot and taking a shot of alcohol only a month out (21st bday)

      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.
