Congratulations on your progress so far!!

Sorry can't help you with the throat thing but if you've had it checked out and they don't see anything it may be just something that will get better with time.

I know I had a problem drinking Water for almost 4 months without having a wierd sensation in my stomach.

Good luck on your journey!

The lump in the throat is what I had when I had excess stomach acid. I had hunger pangs and the lump. I started a PPI (Omeprazole) and it got better. PPI is a proton pump inhibitor lke Prilosec and Nexium.

Black Diamond

was that you i saw doing cart wheels in the mall yesterday??? :lol:

wonderful weight loss :)

3 cheers for you :)

the doc did a test on your throat saying all is well :)

but...............it it persists for quite a while

go to the doc again!!!

you/everyone needs to be aggressive about their health

just because the doc says all is ok - it has happened that finally "they" say, "oh yes, i do see a prob" something like that :huh:

i'm sure/hopefully all will be well sooner than later

keep up the good work

kathy

congrats

      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.
