I had my bypass surgery yesterday, June 14! I feel amazingly well today. I get to graduate to beef broth Crystal light, and sugar-free Jell-O. I expect to be discharged tomorrow, June 16.

Congrats! Puree's suck after a while, but once the real foods start, it's quite nice.

I used to live in PW County. The Dunn side comes from MD.

And if you go back far enough the Dunns came from Dundee Scotland. My own paternal great grandmother came from Edinburgh, from whence came my Celtic RedGold hair. One day when I was feeling down on myself I told someone I looked like Mama Cass from the Mama's and Papas and John candy had a love child. But as I lose weight the true me will emerge from my fat wrap, what I am is a greatly enlarged Junior size, smaller than the average in the chest for my weight, so when I achieve my goal size of 15 the real underneath Frustr8 is not a woman size, a little more athletic and dare I say a more tomboyish build. May take a year or 2 but I am going to rock this world, if Donald Trump and Kim jong Un haven't blown i🌏 or themselves up!

      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.
