Sorry you are going through this. What does your surgeon or doctor say about it?

Thank you for asking. A 2-inch “thing” is growing in my lung, they finally found out on 10/24/21. It wasn’t visible on July 12; that was when I had a fever from something, possibly severe allergies. I am preparing for a needle biopsy at MD Anderson. I eliminated almost all animal products starting Tuesday. Now eating organic fruits, veg’s and eggs. No soy as it is all sprayed with Roundup; hard to find non-US soy. I will start on organic buckwheat & blue corneal tomorrow combining eggs & EVOO to make pancakes with treat of 3 berries and maple Syrup.

I must say, however, the weight loss is helping a great deal although I am too weak right now to work out a lot, still walking. No more weight lifting now they said as this thing could be some type of tear in my chest wall that has leaked blood & Fluid into & around my lung.

      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.
