Hey I havent tried that. I really need something liquid that is good for bfast bc by 8:00 i am starving but cant get anything in but liquids until about 11 or 12...honestly though I havent found a shake yet that is high in Protein that I like. Thats mainly why I do the shooters bc its bad taste(not too bad) for a really short period. But in your opinion how does the choc truffle compare to other shakes?

I have tried the Matrix vanilla and added banana, and when I first had surgery I would mix the vanilla with sugar free instant Breakfast but I could still taste the protein a little bit but bearable...I have tried the Matrix Cookies and cream if not mixed in blender it taste like protein, mixed in blender its better but not great.... I just had my 2nd fill Monday and I'm not eating as much as I was and I'm not hungary except for early in the morning. I'm starving....Hope y'all find something that helps. Have a Great day....

I dont understand the logic of this so maybe someone can help me...Mon-frid I get up early usually around 5:30 so by like 7 or8 I am STARVING but on the weekends I sleep maybe til 7 or 8 sometimes 9 but I can go until like 1 or so and have to make myself eat....Whats the deal why is it so different maybe I need to sleep late everyday.

Hi,

I really can't tell much difference since my 2nd fill but she only added 1cc the first time and the 2nd time only 1cc sooo maybe my #3 fill will be the magic one.. However I have hit the 40 pounds lost goal and that is very exciting.

I am sick with sinus infection and have been eating ice all day yesterday and it just goes right thru so I probably lost at least 2 pounds yesterday. We went to the circus last night and it was fun.

Here is a slide show that hubby made, see if yall can view it.

I have a question on the 6 month diet. My weigh-ins have fallen around the 28th/29th of the month for my last 5 visits. I have two more to go, but I am in a dilema on this month. Since there are only 28 days in the month, I either have to go less than 30 days from my last visit, or skip the month of February, and go at the first of March. I am really paranoid about BCBS pulling something stupid and not counting this weigh-in. What would ya'll do? As of right now, I made my appointment for March 2nd. My doctor is on vacation the 25th - 27th, so the only other option I have is the 24th. Should I do the 24th or the 2nd? :tongue2:

venzwife, i would worry to much about it. because i did it all for you when i had to skip a visit like that. my doctor had a kid and couldnt make the visit so i had to go 2 and half weeks later and they didnt say anything. so i think you will be fine with what you got.

by the way hows everything going?

crimson tide man, it will be here and over before you know it.

Good Morning

I have a question. Remember my first fill was a bad one and I had to get an unfill b/c I was throwing up everything I put in. Well that has been almost two weeks ago and now I noticed I feel no restriction. Yesterday, I fixed me an egg for breakfast(this is usually all I can eat)but after eating it I was still hungry. I did not feel full at all. I also noticed that I am getting hungry way before 4hrs.(It's more like 1 1/2 to 2 hrs and I'm hungry again.) I don't want to gain any weight back. So this brings me to my question, Should I call and see it they will give me another fill? Please Help.

      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.
