Is anyone else having trouble with a nasty taste in mouth' date=' making it hard to tolerate any liquids? [/quote']

Oh yeah! Ketosis. I'm 3 weeks out and it's still there. I brush my teeth 3x per day and use listerine breath strips. It's supposed to get better...

I'm definitely feeling something like hunger. My tummy growls a little even. It's more like an empty feeling. Anyone else?

My tummy only seems to growl when I'm eating. It's like it was waiting for food and thanking me for feeding it. My lil pet. Lol.

Never to soon to start! I had mine on the 11th!?? Anyone else in June yet? And how's it going?

I had mine June 17th. I had a complication yesterday. The Jp drain hit a nerve and I could not breathe. The ER ruled out major things like blood clots and blockages, gave me more pain meds and sent me on my way. My drain was scheduled to come out this Wednesday, but my Dr. called this morning and said come on in we are taking it out. I feel like a new woman. I also get to start soft/select food. Yippee!

      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.
