  1. 2muchfun- thank you I am glad to know that!
  2. Yogurt was on the list from my dr to start on week 2.
  3. I am just really trying to learn all these noises and pains and things in my stomach. Is it hunger, is it digestion, is it my body saying what the heck did you do? I don't know I guess I am just having an overwhelming day. I came back to work today so I have been trying to make it through the day. I am just glad that I can come and vent or talk and ask questions.
  4. Right I understand that. Thanks again.
  5. Right he gave me instructions but he didn't give me an amount per serving or sitting. Just wondering. Thank you!
  6. First off thank you all for listening. I really enjoy having a forum that I can come to. I a just wondering. I am a week out and I just introduced full liquids into my diet. I can't differentiate the feelings in my belly, there is a growl and a rumble and sometimes I feel hungry and others it passes. I just had my gall bladder out in Feb also so that could be a lot of it. My insides screaming WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME LOL! However, how much should I be eating say of the 100 calorie fat free greek yogurt. A whole small container? A half? Just want to make sure that I have the most success!
  7. Everything went great! Dr complimented me on following the liquid diet as it made things so much easier for him he said. I'm just in a lot of pain and laying around!
  8. I know I'm in same boat! I was just released from hospital today !! I've tried to eat some jello but that's about it!
  9. I wish I was home but I had to travel so we are in a hotel!!!! I'm so ready just so overwhelmed right now!
  10. I'm tomorrow too at 1130 I was moved from 730 I have been on liquids for 7 days!!!! I'm ready!!! Freaked but ready
  11. I'm tomorrow And I'm having a freak out right now!!!

  16. Well it's finally here! Surgery is next Thursday may 30th and my liquid diet starts today! I know I CAN AND WILL do this! Just nervous about going out of town with family for holiday! But I will make it through! I'm so glad that I found this forum! I feel like I'm such an outsider in my town! I have some supportive friends and others that think this is way to radical! But to each their own I'm the one that walks in these shoes everyday! Thanks for listening! Any pointers and tips would be great for gojng out to eat this weekend!

  18. I had my gall bladder removed on Feb 1, 2013 and I am having LB on May 30, 2013. My surgeon, GP and LB Surgeon were completely fine with it. And said the healing process is going to be about exactly the same. They said that they will not use the same incisions that I have, so I am going to look like a collinder LOL! Other than that, he was not concerned at all. I had surgery on a Thursday and came back to work the next Tuesday. I was tired, but fine. Good luck to you.
