does anyone else have a very noisey stomach. mine sounds like a witches culdren bubling away when ever I take a drink move anything.
Yesterday was really bad I thought it could be "dumping syndrom" but now I'm thinking it could be the gas they used to inflate my body moving around.
I want to go for a walk but am a bit concerned about not being close to the bath room.
Any thoughts / surgestions gratfully recieved

I did the first few weeks but it has simmered down. If I try new foods that don't sit well, it can bubble up again.

A high fever sounds like more than just needing Water. That's indicative of infection. How are your incisions?

I called my dr he told me to take liquid Tylenol. I think my incisions are ok ? My fever is down and I feel better today , but that was scary.

OMG today has been the best day so far I feel great and look forward to feeling even better.

I've been out most of the afternoon bought a couple of t shirts one size smaller, been walking around pain free.

Almost bought a naughty snack then realised I don't do that anymore.

It was the best feeling ever food does not rule my life.

Remembering it's a battle of the mind is the most important. I am three weeks out, but still have one consciously make the right decisions

Tommorow will be one week out and I too can take large sips . I am not having any issues getting Water down ? All liquids go down very easy , I can drink a liter of water in 15 min . I starting to get a little worried.




As far as I hear... we're good. Swelling must be down. but i was advised to take it slow.. water is way more easier than Protein to get down especially ice cold water!

      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.
