Could it be allergy? I had one last week that almost took me out and allergy med was the only thing that helped.

I was told my headache was due to carb and caffiene and sugar withdrawl!! I have had a headache now for 2 weeks and tylenol does not phase it!! So I do sympathize with you!I go tuesday for my surgery

p.s but I would have to agree it is prolly a withdrawl of sugar, caffiene, and carbs!! But I have lost 4lbs in 3days (I think they wanted me to lose about 5lbs & I think I should be able to do that)!

Is headache one of the symptoms of depression? I have it every now and then. I have not discussed it with my doctor nor have taken any medicine for it yet, but I think I am kind of depressed and that is the reason behind it. Can anyone here shed some light on this. Thanks in advance.

      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.
