So I have read about so many people being tight in the morning that they do not eat. Does that mean you will have problems drinking Water?

If I could not get Water down at any time of day. i would consider myself too tight and get a little fill taken out.

That would be too tight for me, others don;t feel the same becasue they need/want strong retriction when the band opens later in the day.

I consider myself tight in the morning, but I mean I cannot eat solid foods until lunchtime. I can definitely sip Water. Sometimes I can drink a half a cup of coffee. If I am hungry, I'll have yogurt or Carnation Instant Breakfast. I cannot eat eggs or fruit or Cereal. If you can't drink water, I would imagine you're too tight (I wake up thirsty!).

I consider myself tight because I can't eat solids. But I have no problem drinking a protien shake or slimfast and a cup of coffee. Since I didn't have any solids to wash down I slowly drink at least 2 glasses of Water before lunch.< /p>

PB stands for Productive Burp meaning you burp up food. I have seen some use it to refer to vomiting. There is a thread I stumbled across that had the meaning to many of the acronyms used on this site....I saved it as a Favorite.

I cannot eat in the mornings. Anything I drink in the morning that is cold I have to sip. Hot beverages like coffee or hot tea go down almost as they did pre-surgery.

      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.
