I'm not. I still feel bloated, but I also haven't gone número dos. It's been 8 days!!! I'm taking some MOM. I'll probably lose 5 lbs :)

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 was going to ask tomorrow. But knew since we aren't able to eat much we wouldn't have a lot in us.

How did your MD appointment go?

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! You get to eat something!

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!

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.

      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.
