That's great @@amylynns ! Way to go! I really wish I liked fish...I might give it a try again soon, but I've never been a fish person. I used to love meat...chicken, beef, pork...loved meatloaf, meatballs, just grilled chicken w some broccoli...I can't eat any of it right now, even the smallest amount makes me nauseous. I am hoping over time it will get better though. For now tho, I'm just trying some other stuff and hoping it keeps my belly happy til I can get back to the doc!

Thanks Luna!! Talapia I can handle, not salmon yet. Tried it twice, no go. Talapia is alot milder. I have tried chicken beasts too, I can handle about 4-5 pieces and I'm full. Haven't tried beef yet.

It's good to be treating your belly careful for now. I did that for a week and a half and I'm sure it helped.

oh salmon. It was such a painful experience. Tilapia is a great source though!

Been lucky as long as I keep it to 3-6 bites when it is solid meat I can eat it Ground beef... no problem. Buffalo is best. Weight is inching down. Sure like having this blog. It shows me I am neither alone or crazy... :-)

Hey ladies and gents. I've been on the gastric bypass fb page, it's interesting. Anyway I'm down to 213 lbs, slowing inching down to onderland, I joined a gym so Monday will be my first official workout after work. 2 days ago I went shopping for my daughter's birthday. I decided to try on some clothes to see where I'm at. I could fit into the size 16 in misses, the women's size 16 was a bit too loose in the belly area. The misses 16 was a tad too tight for me, I suspect in the next few weeks I'll be in them. Here's a pic of the size 16 misses.

My boyfriend told me I was looking pretty sexy yesterday, little better than calling me skinny butt. He is not big on the complements, so made me feel good.

I got a glimpse of myself in a store window today and said "well I guess I have lost some weight". My husband keeps telling me I have, but I didn't believe him until I saw for myself. 50 pounds in 7 weeks, I'm ready to lose the next 50 just as fast!

Eight weeks out tomorrow. And lately I'm always hungry. Today is my birthday. And I spent it at home because almost everything I ate today was making me sick. Funny enough the tortilla chips didn't bother me at all. But now I'm hungry again.

I hope Bronxmerci is ok too! Praying for her! Happy Birthday @@layknee :)

I have found a new snack that my tummy loves, they are Multigrain hummus garlic tortilla chips, with a little sweet onion salsa...omg so yummy! I had half a cheeseburger tonight for dinner, a few fries with it, all made at home...and I didn't get nauseous from it, but I think I had just a couple bites too many, cuz I was just uncomfortable for a little bit after. I had to pace back and forth up and down the hallway so I didn't make myself "think" I was going to throw up. I tend to dry heave alot when my tummy feels icky :-/ Tomorrow is Monday tho, so I'm hoping to hear back about the liver stuff! On another note, sorry if it's tmi lol, but this last week and a half or so, I've been moving my bowels somewhat normally, without the help of any suppository lol. I still take my Colace once, sometimes twice a day, but that's it. It's a relief!

      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.
