Fabulous February Post-Op's

So I learned the hard way-- too much Fiber fort pouch. I ate a few spoons of new potatoes with skins. Couldn't process skins. Once it all came up I was ok.

I think I may be writing to myself, but that's ok. I am about to undergo surgery--they think I have a hernia. Not fun.

Hey everyone...I developed a UTI last week and my doctor prescribed antibiotics on Friday evening, it is now Monday and I have spent the last 3 days in bed. I feel better UTI wise but I was wondering if any of you have been on antibiotics since surgery and had them just knock you down?

I have my 6 month with the surgeon tomorrow morning so I am going to talk to him but I have scoured the board and haven't found anything similar?

Almost forgot to take a 6 month picture... Down 82 lbs. 18 lbs to go to 160. I'm hoping to reach that by New Year's Eve (my wedding anniversary). I'm thinking I'd love to be 155 but at this point I'm so happy with the result! Yeah gastric bypass surgery!!!!

Just an FYI. Had my appointment and my surgeon had No idea why the medication knocked me on my butt. I am, however, feeling much much better.

      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.
