MAJOR SET BACK...

I went for my pre-admin testing on Monday, surgery scheduled for 2/24/14, because it was discovered that I have walking pneumonia :mellow: (in a nut shell I was jumping through hoops all day and night because there were thoughts of something more serious) So here it is now Wed. and I think I have come to the resolution that there must have been a reason that I was not to be a Feb 2014 sleever. But I have not given up hope that one day I will be healthy, I have been tentatively set for mid April. I want to thank you all for the support and wish you all a successful journey :D my mantra is "I may not be where I want to be, but I'm closer today than yesterday" . Thanks for all the support!

Does anyone else use the app My Fitness Pal for tracking Protein and food? My nut suggested it yesterday and it's pretty cool. I'm getting more protein than I had thought. Here's a typical day on the full liquid diet:

Light yoplait banana yogurt w vanilla protein powder(took 45 mins to eat)

4 oz Protein Shake (milk+unjury+carnation)

1/2 cup cream of chic Soup w Protein Powder

1/2 cup FF cottage cheese

1/2 cup cream of chic soup w protein powder

DQ sugar free Fudgesicle (yummy!!)

Between eating every two hours and trying to get the Water in between food and then the calcium chews and Vitamins I feel like I'm always trying to get something down! But I was down 15 lbs at my first week follow up!! Yay!!

OMG that pain Syrup in the hospital was awful! I had to plug my nose to get it down. Good news was the prescription I filled after discharge had some cherry flavor and wasn't quite as bad.

      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.
