Non eating days
Yes yesterday. Day 11 I could only get down about 375 calories. But I made up for it today. It seems like I go up and down. I am on soft mash able foods and ate some refried Beans, banana baby food, yogurt, and half a can of Bean and bacon Soup. Not to mention my Protein shake. So ate like a queen today. I was pretty worried yesterday when i just couldnt handle any food but my body made up for it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Slip in pre op diet
For me it was Really it is my intestines they want to keep clear for a few reasons. Like constipation afterward, reactions to meds ect. I ate very lean but did not do the full liquid diet. I lost 7 lbs in one week and thought see I did ok. Until constipation became so intense afterward. So I paid the price. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Not telling anyone. What do you say?
First and foremost, I am sorry your family is this way to you. Hugs. I am seriously confused, though. Why would they be mad at you for combing your hair? Isn't that basic hygiene? Because they let themselves go and i did my hair and makeup and dressed up so it was always mean nastiness. Like who do I think I am. Was not blessed with nice people.

Wrong decision?
They never even offered me a pain pump. Sad face. I had to beep the nurse and wait until they got to me. But the pain wasnt so bad. It was the nausea. Nothing made me happier then anti nausea meds. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

8 days out can I eat eggs and turkey sausage?
Turkey will go down rough believe me. I am craving meat so badly but it just sits there at the opening of your sleeve unless your going to grind it up in the blender. I have chewed and chewed and still about choke. It tends to clump together in your stomach.
