I'm supposed to start purred foods next week but I already started I could drink another Protein shake .... I'm still eating extremely healthy and only about 400 calories a day .... My Water intake sucks but I'm working on it ! I started eating puréed food over the weekend and my stomach hasn't given me any problems so far ! I also struggle with waiting to drink 30 minutes after eating ....something I have to get used to I guess ! Anyways..... post op appt. was yesterday and my doctor was very happy with my results ! I know the weight loss is going to slow down soon so I'm excited to start really working out ! Well that's all for today ...and only positive comments welcome ...have a great week !

5 days post op. Very happy with my recovery. Because I am a teacher and am off for the summer, I am able to really rest and take my time.

starting Weight-245

5 days post op CW-233

I am a revision patient and had to have additional scar tissue removed from my spleen, diaphragm and stomach. My lapband had been causing extreme pain for 2 years with minimal losses. I feel immediate restriction and love my surgeon. Friday I get to start full liquids and am looking forward to that. We are clearly on the right track. Have an amazing 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.
