<span style="color:#0000ff;">Two weeks until my pre-op appointment. </span>

Hey, me too :). A whole day of fun and excitement - I am pretty sure my head may explode with information overload!

I am 4 days post op and I ventured to the grocery store today with my husband.

LESSON #1: I am not strong enough to control my sense of smell or sight. I had to leave and go sit in the car.

Sometimes I get tired of eating so little; but not tired enough to even consider "going back".

Really getting sick of all the planning that has to go into my daily meals. I'm still on puréed/soft foods. It is a pain in the butt to try and pack lunch for work. And #2 random thought , I am READY to see some change in how my clothes fit! 15 lbs lost since surgery and nothing has changed. It's a little discouraging.

when I'm getting sick I always take oscillocoxicilliam You can get it at any drug store or target or wal mart. It's homeopathic and it comes in little tubes that you open and swallow what's inside. They are teeny little balls so easy to swallow. I swear it's like a wonder drug. I even take them when I'm just feeling tired and worn out. Hope u feel better soon. Get lots of rest and fluids. And an ice bag on my neck and a dab of icy hot on each temple usually drives my headache away.

Thank you I am feeling better. Think it was a new medicine they put me on for reflex.

      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.
