I can't do this anymore. I barely kept last nights dinner down. I didn't keep this mornings Breakfast down. I am trying so hard but there is no way I am keeping all the Protein in I need. Fluids?? Well I'm trying. The only suggestion I get it to drink my fluids and get my protein.... HOW?!? I think I'm going to ask for a reversal next week at my dr appointment. I did the surgery so I could enjoy my life with my kids and now I'm so sick I can't even sit and watch.

Kelly....i would go in and see your doctor. Something is not right and you may have a stricture. Hang in there sweetie, it has to get better for you. Prayers your way!

Does anyone else have like a constant hiccup??

Its not like regular hiccups. Its a rather big one and its random.. Like I get a couple every hour or so.. SO annoying!

I do I do!!! Was going to post the same question! I wonder what causes it.

Call your doctor or go to the emergency room.

I was freaking myself out by weighing constantly. I let that damnable scale rule my life for so long I force myself to stay away...it is natural for me to fluctuate day by day and I was just getting crazy about it.

Can someone explain the term "onederland" to me? I thought it was when you lost over 100 pds. You know...Onederland. But I've seen people use the expression when they just lose past a point. Such as me at 340 when I finally hit 299, saying I'd hit onederland. You know?

So which is right?

Onederland is when your weight starts with a one. Ie 199lbs

      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.
