Epic stomach tattoo to cover them?

Ya know, maybe I'll do that LOL My poor belly button is all kinds of messed up, though. And my stomach kind of protrudes on one side and dimples in on the other. It's really weird. I didn't have this last time.

Maybe it's still air? I know you know, but give it time. My belly does all sorts of weird things too, like protruding in areas on day and fi.d the next. Who knows.

This was also an awesome way to try some brands I've heard of but haven't tried. And I have to say...... Unjury is SOOOO GOOOD!!!!!!! And I love the bone broths in the little round cups. The flavors are so different and unique and YUMMY!!!! I add a tiny bit of seasoning (no spices) and it's really quite good.

Variety is nice. A friend of mine gave me a bunch of Protein Shakes to try before surgery and that helped narrow down what I liked. What I wasn't expecting was my tastes to change so much.

Ya, pickles are a big no go. And I'm not overly fond of spicy and I used to love spicy. Artificial sweeteners are hit or miss. I'm still learning what i like.

I hope the coming days treat you kindly! Your pouch is on the smaller side isn't it?

And pickles! You can give me all your pickles! I still love them!

Because of everything they had to remove due to the polyps coming back, my pouch is 2 oz, possibly a hair under. He said I might stretch to 4-5oz by the 1 year mark, but he'd be really surprised if I reached that.

      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.
