Davalrie 152 Posted October 16, 2013 back2barb78 That's one of the questions I was going to ask him if I could take something. When I meant lighter I should said the way my clothes that were too tight on certain areas are loose. But I need to do eliminate soon as well we had our surgery on the same day so it's about time.

You haven't either? I emailed my nutritionist this morning and she said if i needed it i could take the MOM but that I really need to increase my fluids because I told her I'm really not hungry and having a hard time drinking my fluids. She told me try harder! Damn tough love!! I held out all day to see if it would happen and it hasn't so I'm just drinking it now. I figured it would take a while but it's been 8 days!! {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow that is so wonderful! I'm jealous I've lost 5 and had to do 2 doses of MOM before success! After my "success" today, I'll weigh again tomorrow Congrats!

2boysmomma 0 Posted October 19, 2013 Hi! I'm thinking y'all had your surgery the same day or close to as me. I had surgery Oct 10! When did y'all? I'm new in here and not sure how it all works. Forgive me if I did this wrong! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davalrie 152 Posted October 19, 2013 I eat eggs, tuna, oatmeal, today I had a salad grind up really good only 1/2 cup tolerated well. I still do my shakes and skim milk and plenty of Water. Somebody else recommended hash and to make a crustless quiche which I may do tomorrow. I still look around and explore for new soft foods so I won't get tired eating the same thing.
