Hello ladies glad to hear most of you are feeling well...I'm frustrated I definitely get my liquids in but all Proteins and most foods are making me nauseous I take zofran and it helps but it doesn't completely stop it. I constantly feel sick and I'm getting so depressed because of it. My surgeon isn't paying me any mind tells me it's my anxiety but I know it's not...I get these strong pains at night that are so bad I have to take a pain pill sometimes two...I'm wondering if it's my gallbladder I am going to ask my pcp to look into it, I feel so helpless and frustrated

I'm sorry u r dealing with this I am also still vomiting everyday take Reglan 3 times a day I've been in hospital 2 times for fluids, I'm so weak, had a scope done 2day had a 50% blockage from scar tissue, he opened it up so hopefully it gets better back on liquid diet...maybe ask your surgeon about a scope?

I almost feel guilty feeling so well. I'm so sorry to hear you ladies are feeling bad still. I can easily see how that could become depressing.

My face comparison.

one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

I decided to go through pics on my phone this evening and see what I could come up with for a face comparison.

Not sure if I'm doing this right.

You look fabulous! I'm so sorry you don't feel fabulous. :-( I finally found a Protein that goes in smooth. Fuzzy Navel by nectar. But it has to be VERY cold and it has to be mixed in the smoothie blender. I keep it in a thermo while I drink it in slushy form.

Disneyland...

So, I have been feeling great! I'm drinking my Water. I'm having my Protein. I'm even trying to keep up with my Vitamins. Doctor released me for everything. I decided to go to Disneyland. I have a year pass so I don't mind going in the evening time. I got there at 5pm yesterday and left at 1030pm. At 9pm, I took out my Protein snack and sat on the floor to watch the beautiful fireworks. Big mistake. I didn't pay attention to how much I was eating and ate way too fast. At 10 I wasn't feeling well and told my sister we need to go home now. It took us 30 mins to get to the tran line. That's when it happened. I got nausea and I started sweating real bad. I walked away from my sister and went to stand in a clear area. I leaned on the fence to try to sit on the floor before it happened but I was too late, my whole body was sweating, I became so light headed that my body collapsed. Before I knew it, there was a crowd around me. Asking me all kinds of questions that, at that moment, I just couldn't answer. It felt like all of this happened within 10 minutes to me, but my sister said we were there for 45 minutes. Then a nurse came and took my vitals. My blood pressure was low, so they brought a wheelchair to me and put me on a bus to my car. I was so embarrassed for causing a scene. At disneyland of all places. Ugh

      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.
