Thank you Wheetsin! Hopefully it won't happen again ... I wasn't following "the rules" and didn't chew well enough. I have gotten things stuck before but this time I knew it wasn't going to stay down. It came up quickly and I felt fine afterwards but all I could think about was my stomach pushing up through my band :)

Going to see my doc and having a fluoro this weekend :)

I'm guilty of skipping breakfast. I've been having my liquid/chewable Vitamins, my Synthroid tab, and a couple cups of coffee in the early a.m. Bad, bad, bad. I like the idea of three meals and I MUST have something to eat between 3:00 and 4:00 in the p.m. or I'll crater. I eat lunch and then count the 3:00 thing as my second meal. Then I'll eat supper between 7:30 and 9:00. I never get in bed before midnight. I have found a wonderful product at GNC, though: Isopure. It's 40 grams of Protein, no sugar, no carbs, no fat. It's great insurance for getting your 60-80 grams of protein in. I fear losing my hair, so getting the protein required is a big deal for me.

Thanks, y'all. You guys are all awesome and I'm grateful to have found you!

      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.
