No I was craving weird things during my liquid phase haha those cravings are gone now. But I have had tuna scrambled eggs I smashed up like a big piece of shrimp. Not the best idea I haven't had. Haha I've had some sugar free water ice. Mashed cauliflower was okay. This isn't all in one day either lol I am excited for soft foods tho. KFC grilled chicken sounds amazing!!! lol thanks for giving me that to think about

I'm getting nervous! I'm still on puréeds but I haven't "eaten" anything in almost 4 hours and I still feel kinda full. Is that normal? LoL I've been sipping on water since so I don't get dehydrated but I have no desire to eat anything at all for te rest of the night.

Well #1 I have a lot to lose lol so that's probably part of it. Scale says 15 but by looking at me, ya really can't tell. And honestly I am not doing anything special/different. Was on liquids (including pudding and yogurt) for seven days. Cannot do the protein- makes me gag. I've tried two kinds and it's just too expensive to keep buying and wasting. Dr said stop with the shakes and get in as much as i can with food. I walk a little bit but not a whole lot cuz it's just too damn cold outside right now. Lol

My surgery was March 13 and I have lost 15 lbs!

I'm also having a huge issue with protein. I didn't get any yesterday, maybe 30g the day before and I'm dreading trying again today.

I was a nervous wreck when I was sleeved (march 13) they injected me with Xanax or something TWICE! haha the first time I didn't feel anything and kept like jiggling my feet and they came back over and did more. I have never had surgery before so I think that's why like literally EVERY thought was going through my head. Not to mention my best friend died in the hospital where I had my surgery due to malpractice. I know ... everyone thought I was absolutely nuts to be having surgery there. But I just had such faith in my doctor and kept thinking positive thoughts and if it was meant to be it will be. But you will be fine, seriously. If I went through with it.. you can too! Just do everything they tell you! I'm sure you're doctor has done this many times! good luck!

I'm 5 days post op and starting yesterday (I posted about it but it's gotten worse) I have been having this burning pain right next to an incision next to my belly button. It's especially bad when in the process of standing up or even slightly leaning forward. But if I lay flat or stand tall n put my hands on my hips (I look sooo idiotic lol) it's goes away. I called doc and left message but wondering if anyone else knows or has this?? Taking pain meds but find it odd that this JUST started. feeling like pop

Mine has nothing to do with incision tho-- I can just tell

OMG! I literally have the same thing. They had to cut a little more than expected so mine is kind of near an incision but I have the exact same problem!!! I was getting nervous! But to know someone else has same pain I guess it's common?? I take my Vicodin lol

... I just discovered wonton soup broth. Well not really just discovered but my husband wanted Chinese on way home from hospital (so kind of him to pick the one thing I'm dying for). It is probably the most amazing thing i can put in my mouth right now. Just had to share. Haha literally on cloud 9 sipping this right now!

Also getting the amount of fluids they want you to have is pretty difficult but I'm getting there.

lol I feel okay. My whole body hurts for some reason. I think it's just from coughing and I got the hiccups a few times pretty bad so the convulsions from that hurt. Haha but it's really not terrible. I didn't hurt too bad right right after. I was pretty naseaus right after but it was like dry heaving and then it would just be a burp lol the gas pains were the worstttt out of anything.

I think you are right!! My surg was Wednesday and I came home this afternoon!

Aw! Hope everything is fine! That is my biggest fear!

I just came home today!! I have a question bc my book they have me is so confusing! Lol in order to get all ur fluids in, are you all just constantly sipping? I am so scared to drink to much because I HATE throwing up and I am trying to avoid that! I honestly can't tell anymore with the pain from the incisions, gas, or if my stomach is feeling full. Lol so back tony question. Are you pretty much sipping on and off every few minutes to get the right amount of fluids or am I doing something wrong??

Thanks! I really hope so!! I am not burping or anything though it seems hopeless lol

I was just sleeved yesterday. Gas pains are the freakin worst. Seems like nothing is passing. Have gas pains everywhere. Ugh! They keep telling me will pass within 48 hours. I certainly hope so.

Thanks everyone!!! It is crazy what is going through my head right now! Def wouldn't be approved for the psych portion of PRE op right now haha!! I know it is going to be SO worth it!! I've just never had any kind of surgery before. And I am so hungry right now and thinking of all the foods I want but will never have again (well any time soon). Ugh! Can't wait to get this over with!!!! Good luck to everyone else tomorrow too!!!

I have my surgery tomorrow. I have googled the words "loose skin" along with "bariatric" soo much! Lol it really seems to all depend. I guess ill find out soon enough

I go tomorrow. 5:30am. I am sooo nervous right now. My stomach is in so many knots. I can't even eat my disgusting PRE op food lol ahhh pray for me tomorrow!

I'm idk what ddee3 or whatever is hahaha stupid iPhone

I totally binged ???? I had wings, pizza, ice cream and soda. I realized after... it wasn't even that good! lol this PRE op diet is killer though. Ugh! Worst part is.... I am not even approved yet!!! They just will not give me an answer soo I am possibly torturing myself for no reason right now!

My surgery is scheduled for March 13. I still haven't heard from Aetna about being approved. I am soooooo nervous. Idk if I am nervous for surgery or scared to hear a no. I am going crazy. I have called Aetna twice and get put in hold and Dr hasn't called me back yet! I am freakin out!!!

I am still hoping for March 13th. My pal Ashley at the Dr. Office Started submitting paperwork to the insurance company this week. So she says. We'll see! I'm getting so excited! Had an upper endoscopy Wednesday. Worst experience ever!! Blahhhh!!! But staying positive!
