You should be up and walking as part of your recovery. Tell your mom that your official post-op instructions require you to take a 30 minute walk each day. Even if it is just around the block three times. Get up and get moving!

LOL@ calling the police! I too overstocked on Jello and sugar free pudding. And yes, I would have to put it back in fridge to be finished later. I guess I just couldn't grasp the concept when I was shopping! And YAY YOU for not focusing on the numbers! that is AWESOME! You go girl!

I overstocked on sugar free popsicles. I bought one box and I think I ate two. I ended up giving them away (my little cousins loved them). I hated them. lol

      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.
