Oh. And I'm a little concerned. Anything with Protein powder added is not sitting very well with me. I had no problem with Protein shakes pre op but now they're all coming right back up.

Have you tried unjury whey Protein? It really dissolves well and my doc recommended it as the best for RNY patients. Maybe that'll go down better? Best wishes to you.

I have not but I may try their sample pack. I bought the Syntrax to start with. Tastes good and dissolves well. Just having trouble with anything cold right now.

I got the chocolate truffle and vanilla bean torte. Also got the unflavored to mix with Jello and stuff.

Yay, I'm glad to have a surgery buddy! We are lucky to have the summer to get accustomed to our new lifestyle. I haven't told anyone at work so it has been hard during these last few teacher workdays to explain why I can't go out to lunch (pre-op diet). Are you on a pre-op diet?

I haven't been given a pre-op diet to follow. I'm impatiently waiting for the hospital to call me for my pre-op appointment. gah!!!! I have shared with quite a few people at work. We are a very small school and faculty is all pretty friendly and close. I've had a few friends say are you sure???? and when I say yes, they ask what they can do to help.

Time to sip some Water and take a hot shower and go to bed.

Did not sleep last night. Worst night since I've been home. Out of control cough and my lungs feel so tight. My asthma inhalers did not even help. Don't know if its post nasal drip from my allergies or the start of an upper respiratory infection. Going to put a call in to the surgeons office here shortly. I was planning on going back to work tomorrow but I can't if I can't get any sleep.

      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.
