Today marks 3 months since my surgery in Jan an I been doing great. My doctor can't believe how much weight I have lost in such a small time frame. (Down 76) Until a couple of days where I actually vomited. I don't know if I over ate or if I'm eating to late! Ugh any advice would help!

78lb lost in 3 months is fantastic, so first, congratulations on that :-)

As to why you vomited, you have seen the pattern of your eating so far - what your capacity is and what foods give no problems versus cause some issues, and you know what you ate and how much that day, so if you had to guess, what do you think went wrong?

I think I didn't space my night snack and taking my pills out far enough.

Okay is it hard to take those small small bites and chew chew.. I start my pre-op diet tomorrow with surgery April 27. Nervous of the unknown. I appreciate all the help. I think its a mind game with me. Not hungry but want to eat sure hope I am not like that after the surgery. I will need to find a hobby.. Every post I read is such an encouragement to me and everyone doing great. Thanks. Any tips on the pre-op two week

      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.
