Iiquid bowels? Is this normal or am I reacting to whey Protein?

I went through the same thing. The carb withdrawal was a real shock.

Omg this! I am so sure it won't work for me! I asked my surgeon too and got a similar response...but it feels so impossible

It is kinda like a test. It forces you to examine your relationship with food. I am on day six. I am on no solids. It has made me feel more committed to this journey.

I don't know. Solid protein would be nice. I have the "should have been predictable" issue of liquid in, liquid out.

What does everyone think of this for the hospital? http://www.amazon.com/Pretty-Pushers-Disposable-Delivery-Pre-Pregnancy/dp/B005IIRDT0/ref=sr_1_17?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1340052851&sr=1-17&keywords=Nightgown

Big dog, for me days 2 and three were the hardest... It totally got better

10 more days. I am on day 5 of my liquid diet prep and it is true what they say. Your hunger fades...

I would like to know this too...

Yes. Protein shakes, broth, sugar free jello. And lots of water. 11 more days on it. I have learned the meaning of head hunger. And I think I am suffering withdrawal symptoms from carbs

DAy three and already six lbs down. I know it's water weight but wow. Never seen my scale move so fast!

Exactly what I needed. Thanks all!

Am sure it is on here somewhere but I did a search and couldn't find it. What should I pack for hospital?

June 28th! So close. So far away

Thanks Robin. So far the diet isn't too bad. But I am trying to stay calm. Excited nervous...feel a little nuts

Nerves are starting. Am I crazy to do this?

Well it's off to get my head examined than. I am hoping the guy who did my consult will see me

I am self pay. I am just required to get one session in before the surgery. It threw me for a loop. I thought I had done " fine" with my psych interview.

Just found out my phyc consult resulted in a recommendation for therapy. I have to have my first one by a week before my surgery June 28th. I now feel stressed, a little judged, crazy and like this is going to block my surgery.

Even though I am self pay my surgen requires a letter of medical necessity. I am paranoid my primary won't do it! I am just so worried that something is going to stand in the way of my sleeve!

Thanks!! I needed to hear that

Glad to hear. I don't know anyone personally. How fast did they loose?

Me too! June 29th!!

Anyone heard any stories of people regretting their sleeve?

My surgery date got pushed back a week. My surgeon will be out of town. So disappointing!
