I found a "new" part



Recommended Posts

I can feel my

Zyphoid process! And it's boney, lol. Probably spelled it wrong but it's that bone at the bottom and center of your ribs where they divide, going toward your abdomen.

@Lacowgirl72 LOL! I vaguely remember hipbones. I got down to 150 lbs with lapband, and that I remember that my hipbones were very uncomfortable to sleep on. Really!! I just wasn't use to it... (Odd how distinctly I remember that of all things.)

Me too! That and I can cross my legs! I can feel the bones in my upper arms, I can even feel my backbone. I still have under 40 to lose. I'm excited by whatever bony part shows up next!

Xiphoid Process lol but you were close!! I can feel how excited you are! I was that excited when I found my collar bones. I still have to touch em allllll the time. ahhaha guess what I found last night.....can you guess....my ischial tuberosity!! or better known as the butt bones! these are the two bone that you sit on. Now I found these by accident as I wasn't going around feeling my butt lol but sitting in the bathtub i realized how uncomfortable it was especially when i sat up and laid back down and heard a noise and it was my butt bones on the porcelain tub bottom. lol

I wonder what other bones we will find soon! I'm ready to see a rib or two myself. Not that I want to look skeletal or anything but a hint of a bone here in there is pretty sexy. :) Congrats on your new sternum!!

      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.
