Thanks for the prayers and love guys, I'm on my 3rd blood bag, my levels are the same after the first 2. I am definitely spending thanksgiving here, they are going to do a ct scan, a sonogram on my legs, and upper gi, and xray. I guess they will check for everything. I'm still out of breath, like I really feel 600lbs. I have been thinking in a more positive way. I know I felt better when I was heavier but this is just the cards I got dealt. I'm wondering what's next.

Phone won't let me. Oh well next time. Happy thanksgiving to everyone! I don't have any clots, I could of guessed that with all the bleeding. My 4th blood transfusion is responding, my level is at 7 now anything over 10 is okay but they want it at 12. Remember I told yall I was having black stools, well its blood like beni said. I seem to be having internal upper gi bleeding. Honestly there are doctors from all these different departments with different opinions and everyone thinks its one thing or the other. They think I am bleeding from my upper gi, they think something is wrong with my vaj cuz I had 3.5 periods in a month, they think there's a stricture, they think so much and I'm just like whatever man lol. I have to wait until friday for the upper gi exam. I am back on full Clear Liquids at 6 weeks out and honestly its okay because I hate food now. I really wanted to share this photo with you guys I look like crap in the face but my body is banging lol. I was 301 on my surgery date, and today I'm 247. The surgery works but damn it. came with some surprises.

Question. Yesterday I was constipated TMI, that's fixed but today I have been having the worst pain in my pouch feels like someone is trying to turn it inside out or something. Tried to eat one thing today and was ok but also nauseous and burping a lot. What's the deal? Tomorrow is my first day back at work and it's a 12hr shift and I'm the only pharmacist there. This is the worst I've felt since surgery...any thoughts??? Help?

      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.
