I broke the stall! Woo! Down two lbs. good thing I didn't give up. However, I did workout too much and hurt my stomach so it's pretty sore now :/ I tried to jog...ugh!

Just are puréed egg beaters with some cheese and turkey. Unfortunatly the turkey I used was kinda spicy- tummy Didn't like. Usually it sits well!

I got a "farberware" single serve blender/processor and love it!

Awesome I am still the same . Just started on puree foods yesterday. Such a different filling in side. I have tried tuna and about an hr after after I eat my abdomen hurts. Gonna try different food. And see if that helps.

Yeah i definitely didn't tolerate tuna. Try yogurt, cottage cheese and applesauce with a bit of Splenda, retried Beans and some cheese- those are all ones I have tolerated.

I did refried Beans . ( smashed beans) with a little cheese and I even had red chile on it I was great no issues. Yogart is Fine apple sauce is to . I am gonna try. Cottage cheese tomarrow . I am gonna try salmon for dinner . It is so hard to eat when u r not hungry .

What kind of workout are you doing ?

I've been walking about 30- 40 mins day. Trying I make sure I get a good sweat. I downloaded couch to 5k on my phone and attempted to jog a little bit (15-30secs at a time). Was a bit too early to try to jog. But I'm going to keep up the walking . Oh and if you have a smartphone- spotify has a workout playlist that is awesome!

Sounds like everyone is doing great!! Surgery was March 5th and I am still sore in the belly area. Been walking but it hurts after about 15 minutes. I went back to work yesterday and by the time I got home I was so tired and sore I had to lay down and I slept for two hours!! I see the nutritionist on the 27th and I go to my stage 2 foods, which is anything I can cut with a fork. I've been good with my Vitamins, and sipping Water and watered down gatorade (G2) all day long. I am down 19 pounds, so I am very happy about that.

My nutritionist told me it is normal not to want to eat. If you aren't hungry, don't eat! Just make sure you get your Water an Protein Shakes in and that is enough. Don't force it and don't rush it. I'm 3 weeks out and sometimes I only get one meal in, sometimes none. Just be sure to get your protein and Vitamins and you'll be ok :)

      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.
