Doing Well two weeks post op. tired of the full fluid part of this and ready for some scrambled eggs and cottage cheese...

I am 12 days out. Eating tomato soup. Squash soup cream of mushroom soup. All strained with added protein.

Will write longer post later. But made it and back in Canada Whoo hoo

Lipsticklady...I meant to say no veggies except Broc and Spinach or I should say no GOOD veggies LOL

I am on 2 weeks, no carbs, no sugar, no fat. no vegetables I can have lean protein, shakes, spinach and brocoli... Been a long 12 days.....Getting sleeved MONDAY!! Looking forward to Juice LOL

danelle, what is the website for the low carb stuff?

I would be okay with it. I love black licorice. I didn't know Stevia tasted like that?? 4 MORE SLEEPS....

I bought some sugar free Torani syrups. They are great for adding a flavour to yucky protein..or to the good stuff...Try some. I ordered them on line.

okay seriously how do you edit the tickers.. when I go into Tickers..I click edit and it takes me to the "make a new ticker options"?

My ticker wont update and it's ticking me off LOL

Jillian, I am going to Guadalajara with Dr. Joffe from Ambi www.ambisurgery.com www.unjury.com the protien powder is awesome!!! My girlfriend went through this a couple of years ago and lost 200 lbs. she had used some of this 21 g Protein no fat, no sugar, carbs 4g.... They have a chicken Soup one...that helps after surgery (they say) as sometimes it is hard to get your protein in...

JillianMarie, I gave up PEPSI first.....Then Coffee...that was a hard one. But I replaced it with decaf (tassimo) and put unjury chocolate protien in it instead of cream and sugar and it taste like cafe mocha sooo good...Day 4 of pre-op...doing good so far. Trying to get all my water in. The surgeon called last night and we chatted. I still can't believe I am actually going to be in Mexico in 10 days...

Unjury is awesome. I also bought unflavored and use Torani sugar free syrups to change up the flavors...

Newbie, My daughter is also being sleeved. She is 27..../we are being done the same day. Started our pre op diets today..whoo whoo time is flying by

sounds like positional vertigo. Based on the position....When I first got it , I was in Vegas....It was caused by flying. In your ear... Just picture a little bag full of little pieces of sand....sometimes one falls out. and causes unbalance (vertigo) Whenever I am about to get a cold... and experience swelling in my ears and it causes it to act up. Also not enough water...or too much salt....Don't panic. It feels horrible but not serious. I went to a dr one time who taught me a roll around exercise, I could do on the bed to try and put that little piece of sand back in the bag of my ear-sounds nuts but he was a specialist and it works!

I am excited and scared. LOL My daughter who is 27 is going too. Start pre op tomorrow. Flying from AB so not looking forward to the long flight.

I am...Going to Mexico April 22

Okay, so I work with one of those too. She is my age 50, and slim and beautiful so much so that our pics are posted on the walls with our kids etc...someone asked me if she was my daughter-yep that's how bad I look-balloned up to 290 lbs. When I had to arrange for her to work for me so I can have this surgery. 04/22/13 she told me she was going to be jealous that I was going to be able to loose weight so easy. She has gained a few pounds (menopause) prob a size 4 now. These people have no idea what it is to be obese-moribidly obese, to suffer medical conditions because of it. Going from a size 2 to 4 is not a life threatening thing. Get a grip people....
