  1. I was prescribed Prevacid and also purchase some gas x strips that also helps. I had my surgery on 3/26 and everything went well. I was told to sit up as much as possible and they gave me medicine in the hospital for acid. I was also told if I walk after every hour that, that would help also. My problem is everything I drink seems to make my stomach feel weird.

  3. Hi Starry, I'm on the protein shakes, broth, popsciles and jello.
  4. I actually had a ruff time also with headaches I increased my Protein intake per my doctor's instructions but am having a trouble time trying to get the weight off. I was schedule for surgery on 12/9 and was canceled due to abnormal chest xray but I lost 18 pds but this time I only lost 6 pds and I'm 10 days in I'm blown don't know what's going on. I hope by the time 3/26 get here I lose another 5 pounds.
  5. I'm really having a problem getting this pre-surgical weight off and I'm getting a little frustrated. In Dec 2013 I was schedule for my surgery on 12/9 but due to my abnormal chest xray it was called off but at the time I started my liquid diet on 11/24 and on 12/5 I had lost 18 pounds. This time I started at 304 and I've only lost 6 pds and I'm totally blown and I'm 10 days in. I don't know why I'm not losing weight and I'm afraid that I may experience the same issues when I have my surgery. Has anyone else experience this slow weight lost. My surgery is schedule for 3/26 and I want to know if this means my liver isn't shrinking. I'm scared of having to be cut vs having laproscopically surgery
