Walmart sugar free popsicles in the bag are the BEST. Life savors!

I FINALLY ate a scrambled egg!! 22 days post op and finally chewed a scrambled egg with a little low fat shredded cheese.. WAS THE BEST.

Kinda nervous that I didn't feel full. Took my time, about 20 minutes to eat it.

But then again, I dont have any feelings, never hungry or full on anything.

Yes...I have the mirena in and no period this whole time. I had surgery on 4/23 also. Same thing happened to me BOOM there it was. Grrrrrrr I hope it does not continue. I assumed it was because my body was in shock and under stress.

I had my surgery on the 23rd of April as well... how are you doing weight loss wise

Agreed, my surgery also took away all my pouches feelings. It couldn't care less if it ever eats. :) I'm so sorry you're sick. Your weight loss is good...but I agree. sometimes it just doesn't seem worth it.

      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.
