How r u doing with it so far? @@Caycee

I was doing great till day 8. After a few days at home in excruciating pain I ended up in the hospital with a Pulmonary Embolism in my lung. I was actually released tonight.

It didn't stop me from continuing eating right or drinking but I did go into a bit of a "stall" because I wasn't allowed to move around.

Take it from me people, MOVE! Just when you think your done walking, walk some more. ????????????????

Geese so sorry that happened to you!!! Thank god you're ok....what did the symptoms feel like if you don't mind me asking

I woke up with a sharp aching pain in my shoulder. Later that day the pain started on my left side right under my ribs. It hurt when you would try to take a deep breath. If I got moving around and became winded it was almost like the wind was knocked out of me and I couldn't breathe.

      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.
