Woo Hoo!!! I had my first PB today.



Recommended Posts

I guess that means after 2 fills my band is working. I ordered a small burrito at Baja Fresh after eating 1/3 I felt it trying to come up. I attempted to keep it down but just not happening.

I reached for a few napkins and up came sum of my lunch. I then decided to eat only the inside of it and leave the flour shell for the trash can. I felt full and yet did not eat much at all.

Kind of gross but I was glad to see it did its job.

Congratualtions!!!!!!!

It is gross and it sounds like you handled real well. I have not had a public episode yet and pray that I handle it as graceful as you did.

I had that happen when I took my grandaughter out to dinner. She had been asking to go to Olive Garden. I figured I could have the Soup and salad combo....

The salad got stuck and out it came. Like you I had plenty of napkins and no one even knew what had happened. I did excuse myself to the rest room for a refreshing splash of cool Water, but when I got back to the table all was normal. I ate a small amount of the Soup, no more salad and no breadsticks. Even the larger pieces of ingredients were left in the soup bowl.

The best part was that I was fully satisfied, as was my grandaughter who ate some kind of shrimp and Pasta dish woth lots of salad and breadsticks. She is 5'1 and weighs 100 pounds soaking wet so she can afford it!

      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.
