Finally cleaned out. I have never had that much waste in me. I'm just glad I did not have to go into the ER.

Well six doses of miralax did not work yesterday. Two fleet enemas tonight. I just got done with my fifth trip to the bathroom. It felt like I gave birth to a Water melon.

Woke up today with the top of my foot swollen and very painful. I have had several stress fractures in my foot and am pretty sure that is what it is. Dont have a clue what I did to cause it though. My mom in law comes tomorrow and the grad party is next Saturday. I DO NOT have time to be in pain and down for the count! Its always something with me!

Remember, nobodys perfect...one day does not a failure make. Todays a brand new day. I don't rely on dumping....most people don't dump, but I don't take this as permission for a free for all. So you don't dump. Now you know. All the more reason to redouble you efforts to commit to the whole lifestyle change. I don't eat junk not because I'll dump, but because it's just that: junk. I want every bite I eat to count for good nutrition and better health. And if I do eat something not so good? I remember tomorrow is another day....it's a marathon,babe, not a sprint.

      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.
