One week post Bypass and I'm allowed to add eggs, hummus, cottage cheese, mashed Beans and yogurt to my liquids. I ate an egg this morning. It was DELICIOUS. No problem. And I've been queasy in the past. Hope they go well for you!

I am allows those too, was just reporting that a reknown Bariatric surgeon had said his patients had a harder time with scrambled eggs that fried/poached - so I mentioned I hoped that was not the case with me (and since I found it very interesting).

Calling all June18th peeps!

I had my official pre-op yesterday and my covid-19 test (I am sue many of you did). For those of you who haven’t had the covid test, please don’t let people scare you. It isn’t close to be as bad as an IV, it is actually a lot like when you get Water in your nose in the pool and it burns except the test isn’t that strong a sting and it’s 10 seconds per nostril (the mild sting is about half that time).

This is about to get real! 😯

Today’s our day! Can’t wait!

Had my gastric sleeve 6/2/2020. Feeling pretty good. Weight stalled at the moment, but from what I am reading...normal. I have lost a total of 25.9 pounds since liquid diet start on May 19th and 10 of that is since surgery. First few days after surgery were ROUGH! Now, a lot better!

Congrats to YOU! How are feeling? Yes, this stall is SO frustrating but as long as we know we are doing what we are supposed to, we will be fine 👍

I’m scheduled for June 25th through Blossom Bariatrics.

Good luck this week. I am scheduled with Blossom for mid August. My biggest concern is flying with Covid cases on the rise. When you are up to it, update us on your experience.

First time poster. I have my sleeve scheduled for June 26th. Just finished my 1st week of liquid diet and it’s not been easy. Lost 10lbs, but I’m wanting to eat so bad, but always afraid of the doctor rescheduling due to not enough liver shrinking....

      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.
