Just checking in all everyone to see how you all are doing? I am doing great! 19 days after surgery on the puréed diet. I lost 25 pounds, sleeping better, able to walk more easily. Foods I am able to eat comfortably are milk, yogurt, chicken, cottage cheese and of course Protein Shakes. eggs don't taste so good yet. Hope everyone is doing well.????

I'm doing ok still trying to get used to eatng slower. I've worked in construction most of my life and only get a short time to eat so it's so hard to retrian my brain when you're used to eating in a short time frame. Waaah!, Waaah! (My weekly whine) Brian

Im sleeping better. Getting used to "eating". The G.I. bug went through my house and that was pretty rough but my incisions are doing well. I'm rested in the morning. I look forward to being able to lift and pick up heavy stuff etc.... I can tell it will be a little bit still.. . 3 week check up tomorrow....

I had a bypass revision on the 9th and did well. I was back to work on the 17th. But then develop a serious viral infection that sent me back to the hospital for 5 days. In the hospital longer with a silly virus than major obdominal surgery. Now my resting heart rate is in the low 40's but this will pass. I'm down 22 pounds since surgery!!!!!

      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.
