KNall got a reaction from parisshel in I am paying too much for this not to work
I'm on the same rollercoaster! Not that it's any fun. I am also self pay. I had an unfill in June and then gained 48 pounds. So my doctor told me to do the pre-op diet for 2 weeks. I ended up going longer. It jump started my system to lose again. Protein Shake for Breakfast, Protein shake for lunch, 3oz lean meat with 1 cup green veggies and 1 cup fruit for dinner. No banana, starch veggies and low carbs. Totally worked! I'm back to smaller portions and losing again. Give it a try.

KNall got a reaction from staceface09 in Post op diet?
I was worried mine slipped. So they did a scan and saw it was fine just tight. So they took out a full cc. That's when I became too loose and could eat bread again. I got in trouble. So recently I had Fluid put back in, full cc, and again 0.125 cc. I'm good now. Good restriction but needed the pre-op diet to jump start my metabolism. Talk to your dr though. There's a fine grey line between red zone, green zone and yellow. My dr also said I shouldn't be eating bites bigger than my ring finger nail.

KNall got a reaction from Niki15 in Eating out
Has anyone been able to get medical documentation to allow them to order off of the kids menu or senior menu for smaller portions? I have tried to order places and have been refused and told I have to order full meals. My husband explains that most of the food would go to waste.

I had Fluid removed due to swelling from being sick. I gained a lot back and my doctor put me in the pre-op diet for 3 weeks to jump start me. It helped a lot!

KNall got a reaction from 2muchfun in Protein shakes
2muchfun I've had a full cc taken out and still needed liquid. Then I gained weight so I had it put back in.
I've been doing Greek yogurt, but I typically eat in the car in the way to work. I think this needs to change.

KNall got a reaction from sjosinsoan in Post Surgery Recovery
Hi all. I'm having my surgery this Thursday Nov 8. I'm most nervous about the recovery after surgery. What can anyone tell me about the days after surgery and the gas that you get.? I've prepared for liquid broths and such after surgery. I'm worried about things coming back up too. Thanks all.
