I just had my first adverse reaction. I must have eaten my tuna salad too fast. Within 15 minutes, it came up. I know it was coming by the way I felt. Stomach still feels a little unsettled.

Lap hysterectomy will be either the 29 or 31. I find out the exact date tomorrow and time. Dr said cancer but most likely stage 1. Unless it spread to tubes or ovaries. However, I do have a cyst on left ovary as well. That was found when all other testing was done. Staging will be determined after the hysterectomy. I should know the staging in the 1st week in Feb. Stage 1 is best case scenario cuz the hysterectomy and removal of lymph nodes associated with it will take care of the cancer. So fingers crossed that its at stage 1!!!!!

      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.
