RJ, just come across this thread - I can't believe what's happened to you! But, as ever, you have kept your humour and sense of perspective while you must be in agony. Hope the pain diminishes soon and that the universe takes a look at itself and says enough for you for now....

I would send you a big hug but I'd better not squeeze you too hard :-)

Hope you're feeling better today!

Nope..worse..Went to the Chiropractor last night and he made some adjustments..Could not find a comfortable spot to sleep for pain...Got up this morning and now my right side hurts almost as bad as the left does....

Then I went for an X ray to see how my lungs are due to pneumonia...I said to the girl that doesn't look good..she said you mean the Fluid in your lung..I said yup..She said oh well things could be worse...I said your telling me!!!!!!!

Probably another round of horse size antibiotics doing havoc on my system..Oh never mind.....I am just discouraged...

I got some new nail polish though...with pink sparkles in it..Think I will give it a go later today....lol

Oh Honey! I'm so sorry you're in so much pain. I hope all the love and concern that has been expressed for here helps ease it a little.

No..But it helps me know that there are people out there who understand and take the time to let you know they care....

Oh no, RJ!! I'm so sorry to read this!! My goodness, you surely are a lesson in keeping positive through just about ANYthing!!! Hun, I would hope and pray I could be as gracious and positive thinking as you are if I had to endure the same battles/struggles that you do. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers, my friend.

      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.
