Feta and goat cheese are my favorite!!!! I love the spinach wrap at Starbucks can't wait to have it again

It is painful but use the pain meds no reason to suffer. I'm post op May 6th and trust me it gets better. One day at a time. The walking hurts but it helps so keep moving

Decaf tea or decaf coffee. You could do the "milkshakes" but no sugar and non fat and your still using a lot of calories

Ok that's what I'm doing today was a bad walking day but in back at it tomorrow

I didn't have one but thought about putting my belly and on from pregnancy. I feel like my belly needs some support. Do you did it helpful?

I'm 5 days post op and I'm trying to walk but it hurts like hell and I get so so tired. After I just want to crawl into bed. How long and how often are y'all walking. I only get 3 walks in a day.

I'm 5 days out mine has gone away but not all. I still have 3lbs of water weight left

I'm 5 days post op and craving salad so bad!!!!! My family had salad for dinner yesterday and I had to lock myself in the room! LOL

I'm in Philadelphia. I haven't been able to get liquids in. I'm not allowed protein until Moday only clear liquids until then. I also haven't pooped yet but I guess I'm probably empty since I've only been drinking clear liquids for last three weeks.

I was May 6 also. I'm home and feeling good. I need to get more walking in but other than that I'm doing good.

Damn! I figured you would say that! Ok I will behave nothing for six months!

Ok question...when did y'all have your first drink post op and what was it? My surgeon said no drinking at all for 6 months. My Lil sister is getting married this summer and I'd love to have a glass of wine at least.

You had yours done at Barix in Pa?

Welcome and congrats! You will find a ton of information on this forum!!! Enjoy and ask away

Thanks everyone I appreciate the support. Detox is right I truly feel like my body is in a detox. I hope tomorrow I feel better.

I'm drinking decaf tea and I only drink one cup in the morning. I drank some tea yesterday and it was decaf. I'm not allowed anything else and it's tough.

So I'm really having a hard time. My date is May 6th and I started my pre op diet on Friday. I have horrible headaches and no energy. My pre-op is liquids only 3 protein shakes, water, tea and coffee. Oh and sugar free jello and Popsicles. Did any of you have issues with pre-op diet. I'm seriously having a hard time. I don't have energy for anything. I have a very stressful job and I'm not sure how I will get they the week like this.

I will have to try the vanilla torte. I got a vanilla from them that I don't like and can't decide what to mix it with to give a better flavor. I'm thinking of trying it in tea to make a chai latte. So you eat a lean Protein everyday? Let me know what they say about your liver tomorrow I've been so afraid to eat anything. I did cheat and have so e Peanut Butter today. I needed a different flavor!

I didn't know they had a program....cool!

That's great down a size. I'm on day three and its tough. Others are allowed food but just liquids is getting to me. How did you do it.

You can do it!!!!! You will be so out if it. When I took a tour of the recovery room I saw a woman walking 4 hours after surgery. She looked tired but said she felt great!

Alicia...where do you have surgery?

Nervous is normal I think. Wow in 24 hours your new life begins. Someone is coming up with you? By the way They don't allow overnight guests.
