    Changetome got a reaction from TheSkinnyCow73 in February 10-13 Sleevers... How Are You Doing?   
    I am a self-pay without insurance. I know I'm being overly cautious with the diet, but I am absolutely terrified of a leak. My doctor "fussed" at me at checkup. He told me that I needed to try different foods. So I slowly added soft meats. I mainly eat Protein, by way of tuna, soft chicken, bacon pieces, eggs, refried Beans, soft deli meats and cheeses. It's pretty rare that I eat the chicken - I don't like the way it just sits there. I want no parts of steak yet because a few weeks back I accidentally swallowed a hunk without thinking. (old grilling behaviors - subconsciously tasting a piece while cooking) I though I was going to die! I couldn't even vomit that piece back up. Also I do still make Protein smoothies, although not daily as I should.
    I have not exercised consistently. I probably walk about three times per week. Starting tomorrow, I will have to do it daily. I need to do something about my painful booty! LOL! Butt muscles may help my situation.

    The Isopure plus in the 16 oz bottles have worked for me. Alpine Punch and Grape are the flavors I chose. Each bottle gives you about 15g of Protein

    Changetome reacted to Dooter in Anyone Have A Hernia Repaired? Still Hitting The Pain Meds After 9 Days   
    Yes, they said the location of the pain is where the hernia repair took place. I do think I'm getting intermittent gas bubbles near the area that aren't' helping any!

    Changetome got a reaction from Jolie_KeMi in Pre-op Diet And I'm Freaking Out!   
    First, take a deep breath.
    Second, go to youtube and review some of the VSG videos for inspiration.
    Third, pray, take a relaxing bath, drink some warm Soup, take a walk, play with your kids, read a book (or listen to one on tape)
    Fourth, write down a meal plan. Look at your doctor's instruction. Google "liquid Diet" for help. Make sure you have those items on hand.
    Do anything to keep your mind straight right now.
    Even though I am preop too, these things help me relax.
    YOU CAN DO THIS!
