My 23Rd Day After Surgery What Did You Guys Eat On This Day ?
I've pretty much was eating soups, and soft foods. I'm 2 months out now, as of yesterday, and theres pretty much nothing, I can't eat. Some things I havent tried, but if I havent, its becasue I dont want it. I've lost 45 pounds as of today. Yeah. I have about 50 more to go. How about you?

Today's The Day!
Oh, honey, keep the faith. I'm 35 days out, and have lost 35 pounds, and I feel on top of the world. There hasn't been one day, that I regret. I'm so happy, I couldn't think about crying. I've had a few problems, but we just have to stay strong and work through them. See you on the other side. Kathy

Severe Shoulder Pain
Ok, I had my sleeve, on Dec. 12, 2011. I have had pain, severe at times, esp. after I eat, every since the surgery. I have been to the hospital, and had a cat scan, right before Christmas, and it showed, that my spleen was messed up, and that one of my lungs, wasn't filling up all the way. All they did was give me liquid vicadin. Now the pain is still there, and after about two table spoons of food, I'm in so much pain, that my husband, gets my vicadin for me. I have a doctors appt. on wed. and my family is mad, and wants some answers, to when this will stop.

Will This Liquid Diet Ever End? :/
Here's my pre diet Breakfast: 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese 1/2 cup fruit AM Snack: UNJURY Lunch: 2oz. turkey 1 oz low fat cheese 1 low-carb wrap lettuce, raw veg mid afternoon: UNJURY Dinner: 4-6 oz very lean meat, poultry or fish, 1-2 cups low carb vegetables, large green salad with 1 T dressing, sugar free jell-o with 1/2 cup fruit Evening: UNJURY They also give you other choices. Oh by the way UNJURY is the protien powder, they make you buy 3 of them, to make it thru the pre diet. I have been on this since Nov. 28, and have lost 9 pounds. I have my surgery on 12/12 and will most likely lose another 4 or 5. So It is weird to see all the differant diets, they put people on. I'm having my surgery at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City Michigan.
