Yes I got a call back from the nurse and she asked me several question and seemed to think it was mostly Fluid and not to worry. She scheduled me to come in for a check up in 2 days. I feel fine I just completely freaked out when I saw that on the scale. I stepped off reset and kept getting the same number. It was really scary.
Thank you for checking up on me. I hope you are doing well.

Don't start out trying to eat🐎 right away! Start with donkeys or Wesh ponies and work your way up. Seriously don't overtax your internal incisions, you are dtill,healing and will be for quite a while. An exploding stomach,is corting a fatal outcome. Please go very slow and follow your bariatric plan closely, it's set up that way to protect you.

@macadamia, Quaker Oats has an instant oatmeal that is labeled "weight control" - I think it's really just less sugar. But some of the flavors are tasty.

I’m trying so hard not to weigh myself. Lol
GOOD JOB on the weight loss everyone!

I admire your willpower. I got on the scale today and it didn't budge from yesterday. It reminded me that I really need to just step back and let my body do the healing and the weight will shed on it's own. My goal now is to stay away from it until Sunday. Crossing fingers I can keep my own challenge.

      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.
