Time is flying! I have still not advanced my diet completely through my doctors phases, but I am ready to try advancing again after the last week of vomiting new foods.

I have lost 31 pounds in the last 6 weeks, 14 pounds since surgery on 9/29 (including a 2 week stall at the same weight (frustrating). I have my next appointment with my surgeon on 10/29, exciting!

I love reading about everyone's success-- soon I hope my story will be inspiring too. ????

Sounds like you are doing great! I had surgery 10/22 and I am down 34 total including pre op diet weight loss. My doctor doesn't advance people from the broth/cream of wheat type stuff until 6 weeks. I am so ready for some veggies and meat.

I bet your are!!

Not much longer for you now! I am not on meat yet, but I can tolerate a small amount of veggies in Soup or roasted. I really like Beans, eggs, and light and fit Greek yogurt right now! Yum!

Sorry to hear you've been having such a tough time. I hope you get to increase your food choices soon, without the vomiting. Hang in there. Sometimes it just takes extra time. Congrats on your weight loss though!

I made fish again tonight to try to advance my diet to the next phase! I was able to tolerate about 1 oz of Basa, white flakey fish that I poached.

Yeah! That went so much better than last week when I tried to advance to fish! ????????????

      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.
