I wish my preop diet was Atkins. It's a low carb liquid diet for a week...ewww.

The Atkins sure did work for me, but every Doc is different.....I forget, where in SC are U and who is your Doc? Nosey, Nosey! All of the shakes on BariacticEating.com are yummy and very hi protien and almost 0 carbs.....Have U tried those?

Hey! I just had mine done on the 5th. Besides feeling full of gas and being hungry already, I guess I'm fine. How about you?

[crystalM 0]

That sucks b/c I am by no means hungry at all and I had mine done on the 5th as well. I couldnt imagine being hungry right now. good luck to you.

Hi Gang,

Yes, I just had my surgery on Sept 3rd..... So far so good. I haven't had

any complications such as nausea or vomiting... I'm not really feeling hunger pains too bad. But I seem to be able to drink as much as I like.

I don't know if that's normal or what ? I hate the shakes... trying to drink them as needed but it's a chore... Any suggestions ?

Thanks,

What kinda shakes are you drinking? I am drinking the Carnation Instant Breakfast for the carb conscious with skim milk. It's pretty tasty.
