After that fainting scare, I haven't tried to cheat once! I'm scared to feel that again.

I had been struggling to be honest and I'm glad I wasn't alone I ate a pretzel fortunately I didn't get sick it was driving me insane and making me so depressed I'm over it but I can't wait to get to the "baby food" phase so I won't feel cheated this is is so rough

I've really been doing pretty good, feeling wise and as far as getting my requirements in. However, I made a milk and Protein Shake and froze it like a sloppy ice cream tonight. Was pretty yummy, but I'm pretty sure I ate it to fast! Didn't realize it at the time, but did the whole cup in like 20 min. Oops! Now I'm super nauseous. Took some of the nausea meds the doctor prescribed and hoping it passes quickly.

So excited and nervous! Is anyone else having surgery on my date? I would like us all in one thread to give our own experiences. It'll be great! We will all be in pain at the same time.

Also, am I the only one, or is anyone else extremely frustrated being a grow up woman/man and pooping their pants?!?! Twice today. I'm beginning to wonder if they have me on too many laxitives/stool softeners.

What's your stats...you know, age, weight, height, goal?

I'm 52, 225, 5' 5" pushing for 140 but I realize I'm 52 and don't need to necessarily get all the way down to 140. I'm getting RNY

I was suffering big time from gas. I took a tablespoon of milk of magnesium. My gas is gone and I had a BM. If gas is what's keeping you from consuming liquids, you should consider some milk of magnesium. It helped me a lot! I was suffering so much. Today I managed to consume 42 ounces of liquid and I still have 2 hours before bed. Everyday it gets better.

I want to give a shout out to all of us with surgery this week...we are awesome! We are making it through a holiday eating nothing! I am so proud of us. Just think ahead to the 4th of July and where we will be size wise and what we can eat.

I was able to get all my Protein in and liquid. I went to the pool with my kids and got some sun on my face...of course I didn't dare get in. I am feeling pretty good. I have a follow up with my doc Tuesday and hopefully will be cleared to go back to work! @@Lana R I hope you get to feeling better. Maybe try a different temperatures for your liquid. I love Water but since surgery it doesn't like me.

Nope you are not the only one... I was not on laxatives but still had that happen to me, I thought I was going to pass gas and well... It wasn't gas... Was not fun! Can't trust the farts!

Yep, exactly. I'm in the bathroom yelling for my 14yr old daughter to find me clean underwear. Luckily I don't embarrass easily, but it is not fun in the least. Gonna give it the weekend and then call my doctor if it's no better.

      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.
