Am I the only person having issues with chicken? It doesn't matter how it's cooked. My pouch is not having it!

I went thru that but it's better now. I agree use some type of sauce.

Try using a meat tenderizer hammer on it. Then dip it in egg with Dijon musturd roll it in a little flour and bake. It is a lot tender that way

At theER. I went to my family Dr and they reviewed the urinalysis. Turns out no bladder infection. Just in case ran another, still not one. They called surgeons office and they to me to go to ER right away for testing. I'm scared they messed up my bladder.

I am so thirsty and tired of Water and crystal light flavors and poweraide zero. they make me more thirsty.

no i dont want a soda pop but has to be something we can have

how about lemon water or fruit infused water, drop your.own fruit In the water or make ice cubes with fruit puree so when it melts it flavors your water.? Those are suggestions my nut gave me and I am diabetic so the sugar content should not be an.issue, and of course trying different teas those have been life savers

      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.
