Just ordered my last meal before my one week liquid diet... sushi! I know this is something I will never be able to eat again, because the bites are too big...

My best friend had a bypass 6 years ago. She eats sushi all the time. I wouldn't worry about that.

Hope "things" are ok! She DID say everywhere! :)

She did! I think you need to be super clear when dealing with others....sensitive bits. I'm not putting it ...there, tonight though. I wash with regular soap then put that on. You know...It makes me itch and dries my skin. Ashy, no nail polish, no makeup, NO BRA. I hope I look better coming outta this than going in.

My Fluid has been out of my lap band for three weeks so I have been eating sushi like crazy because I could not eat sushi at all with the band.

Could be that you cough when laying down due to postnasal drip. Do you have runny nose, congestion etc? I hope you get some relief soon. It is no fun not being able to sleep! If I were you, I would start with regular doctor.

I had gotten allergies a few weeks ago that turned into a cold that seemed to get better for a few days then suddenly got worse and turned into an upper respiratory infection. On antibiotics now. Hope I am all cleared up soon or they will not do surgery...

      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.
