Anyone have thoughts on Aloe juice? Someone on FB recommended it to me and I took some last night. Is it BS or does it actually help with anything? lol.

I actually like the taste. And it certainly didn't seem to hurt anything. But it is sort of expensive, so I didn't know if it actually DID anything. lol.

POOPDATE (poop update). Second suppository at lunch initiated some movement! It was small, but it was mine. I definitely feel some cramps now. Along with the second suppository, I had 4oz of aloe juice, Miralax, and a Colace. I am hoping that another dose of Miralax tonight and another Colace + a 3rd suppository in the a.m. will get me free n' clear!

SUNUVA. The surgeon's office said if I continue to have cramps into the night to go to the ER. >=[

I just had the weirdest night. After the second suppository with minimal success, I went back to work. At 4 I got very nauseous. Went to the ER. They did a CT of everything. I HAVE NO POOP IN ME AT ALL. 10 DAYS AND ZERO POOP ACCUMULATION. Who needs Fiber? NOT ME APPARENTLY. It's just a friggin mystery! They called the bariatric surgeon and he was like... okay, cool... just go back to eating and you're good. So. No poops in 10 days is Kosher for me. No leaks, no poop in places it shouldn't be. Just no poop. Aight.

I have been having nausea from the ulcer so the ER gave me FIVE more meds for that. Jeebus.

Has anyone tried drinking prune juice? I have some on hand and was going to try it if needed but forgot to ask my dietician. Thoughts?

      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.
