The wheat thins reduced fat and home made plain yogurt is my thing. I hate food this week. Looking at a plate of food literally made me gag yesterday

Okay' date=' UPDATE: I went in and it wasn't my lymph nodes. Shows how much I know! She thinks it's staph. GROSS. I'm on antibiotics and I have to use that hibiclens stuff again. If this is the only complication I get, that's fine. But still...it's SO SUPER PAINFUL![/quote']

I hope you feel better soon! :(

Ok so I have been nauseous every time I think about food. I'm hungry and take one bite and that's it! I'm sickened! So I started thinking about all the sf shit I have been eating and now I'm wondering if my pouch doesn't like the SF substitutes. I was drinking soy milk ( when it didn't make me gag) tried almond milk ( totally gross) bought skim milk lady night and had life Cereal...omg. My pouch liked it! No problems! So what do you think about my theory? Slow down on the sugar free I say. I never thought that stuff was good for you anyway.

Thanks for the compliment. Room mother tho?? I'm only 42! LOL! I just did so much research beforehand and still research each problem I hear about. I like helping people! ;) Procedure hurt like HELL, I'll be honest. Is still very tender today. He did the nerves on both sides at 3 levels, so SIX needles and burns. Ice, vicodin, and rest is all that's on the schedule for me today! Good thing I'm not working now. Can't go back until I see the back surgeon in June. I've had a nice long leave! :)

I'm not much with the sugar free stuff either but I also I'm afraid to have anything with sugar so I've just avoided it except in my yogurt I eat Dannon Light and fit Greek yogurt but I went through a phase from Sunday to last night that I was nauseous over everything so I don't know

I drink 1%, cuz that's what my family would compromise on. No skim for them, and 2% tastes like cream to me. I am so hungry for Cereal, and Life is so good, except I like the cinnamon one. Probably not a good choice! ;) I really don't eat any sugar free stuff, except for the popsicles.( and they are really no sugar added) Good theory if you ask me. There is a lot of bad stuff in sugar free stuff I think. (Additives and whatnot)

      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.
