Tylenol took care of the fever a bit... still up a little, but not horrid

took pain meds about 11, will take more in about half hour so I can be knocked out for a bit.

no idea how I'm going to get up at home in my bed. :eek:

really nervous about that

my appetite has left... yay! I had about 4-5 bites of Pasta and a whole salad.. guess I'm glad I got my unfill cause I feel a tad tight.

my fingers look like I am back up to 400 pounds. my 'big' wedding ring won't even slipon. :cool2: finger feels naked

trying to drink as much as possible..

ok tired. later

The best thing you can do for yourself right now LJM is rest - I am not good at taking my own advice, but know that it is true . . .

You will feel better each day!

I have found if I roll onto my side and push with a leg, that is the easiest way to get myself up, at least for now.

Take care ~

      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.
