Feeling Tired after 11 Days of Liquid Diet
For my height of 5ft3in I'm suppose to have 79 grams of protein a day. If I knew how tall your were I could get the protein amount for you, I have a list from my Dr.. My Dr. pushes protein because it helps in weight loss and satiety. I would not go against anything your Dr. has told you about protein and your diet plan though. ~~~Stephanie

problems?
You can also try magnesium citrate, it comes in a liquid form and in a couple different flavors. From what I remember it does not taste extremely bad, still not the best thing to drink though. Good luck, and yes if that does not work I'd see about an enema or your Dr. ~~~Stephanie

Unjury
I have not tried unjury, but I have tried nectar (fuzzy Navel flavor) it is really good. If you want a change from the milky ones it's really good and has a good Protein amount. Just thought I'd mention it in case you were looking for some different ones. ~~~Stephanie

Swimming
I have to wait three weeks before I can be submerged in Water, I think it has something to do with infection. The best thing is to ask your Doc. ~~~Stephanie

16 week pre op diet
Yes I'm addicted to carbs, I do better if I stick with complex carbs, but even then I have to watch it. And there is definitely withdraws with coming of carbs. Just coming of simple carbs you can have withdraws. Good luck, the 3rd day is the worst for me when I do it. I feel better by the 5th. ~~~Stephanie .

2nd day post op question
Same thing here. Just had surgery Tuesday and It is hard, especially at first to drink anything. I feel so full and bloated, it is so uncomfortable. All I can drink right now is my 4, 8oz servings of protein drinks and a 1/2 cup of coffee. ~~~Stephanie

Did you feel restriction prior to your first fill?
I just got banded Tuesday and I feel full when I drink I think it is just from swelling and gas. As far as burbs, yes I have been doing that a lot on liquids. ~~~Stephanie

Alex got rid of him, but I'm afraid he'll come back with another user name. Is there anything you can do with this kind of stuff?

How do you get rid of someone in Private Chat that won't leave you alone and keeps asking for money? I reported it to Alex. But He keeps popping up on private chat it's annoying. ~~~Stephanie

Band tied to emotions?
Yes, I just had surgery Tuesday and even though I've been to afraid to touch my stomach so I don't know if it is hard. I do know that it hurts getting up and down and bending over which I'm not suppose to do. The bending over part or stooping for that matter. So be careful. ~~~Stephanie

Going home but worried about port sticking out!
That's what I was thinking, maybe it is just swollen right now. ~~~Stephanie
