I am feeling great today! Probably the best I have since surgery. Went out and mowed the lawn, and got some exercise. It is hot here today, so I think I sweated off a couple of pounds. Gonna go to the neighbors tonight for a bonfire and see some old friends. Can't drink, so it should be an interesting night. Hope everyone is doing ok today!

So after my previous post, I had some imitation crab and shrimp for lunch. Something didn't agree and it instantly came right back up. Now I'm burping like crazy! So much for a great day

Girl, that can cause major problems. Sip hot Water and lemon. Try to get it soft enough to move on through. Mine says no to gum cuz it can obstruct the pouch so nothing can get out.

      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.
