Hi all. So it's my 6th day and things are better. But at least once a day I start to slime and either dry heave or throw up liquid. I don't know what is going on. I KNOW i am not cheating--straight full liquids and nothing else.

docotor said that my band is very high up under my breastbone and when i feel the pressure in my chest it is my full feeling. how can that even be possible when the rest of my stomach gurgles with stomach pains??

i am heading back to work next week and how embarrasing it will be if i have to run off to the bathroom suddenly to throw up. my workplace is so small they will all hear me!!

i wanted to ask also about lifting. my doc says no more than 5bs for two weeks. wel my hubby has been home for the week helping with the kids but next week its all me. he is gone by the time we get up and i have a one year old who is more than 5 lbs!! how did everyone manage with this??

Wow, 6th day? After surgery? And you have good restriction? Wow! You are lucky!

When I got restriction I still felt hunger. Don't understand the commercials about 'not being hungry'...because I was. I'd eat til just a tad overfull (slime a bit). But I'd have to eat within another 2 hours. Seems like I ate all day long.

I know some are to eat 3 or 5 meals a day and that will do it for them...but for some, we have to tweak that. Even if it takes 6 hours to eat one meal...eat a little at a time.

Just talk with your doctor.

And if you are vomiting (ever) get seen immediately as vomiting can cause something to go wrong. If it's just sliming....just don't eat as much/as fast...and talk with your doctor.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
