Alas. No insurance coverage, so going the self pay route. Surgery is Monday!!!

Mine never said anything until I asked, and good thing I did! They said just one needed to be free though. I believe they can also use toes, so ask about that.

Prayers please! Will update when I can!

Amazing progress- amazing isn’t it?!

Enjoy the mush . Scrambled eggs with laughing cow cheese was yummy for me as were oikos triple zero yogurts

Well at the end of 3 days I am down 7lbs. I have found that I like warm broth while family eats dinner. Makes me think I’m eating something good. I have cooked several big meals for the group (5 family members). I am proud to say I have not even cheated once, not even licking the spoon! Good luck to everyone. My surgery will be next week

All of you being hit by the Nor'easter, stay safe and warm!! Prayers!

No app dollface. It's a screen shot from a website that @Apple203 linked me to. Here's the link. It's a cool site called Obesity Coverage. You find this screen/schedule under the RNY surgery diet post-op. https://www.obesitycoverage.com/the-big-gastric-bypass-diet-guide/#week 2 and 3

Found this, haven't used it since it's only for iPhone, but looks like an app like you are looking for.

Well in the morning I had a very soft scrambled egg and it stayed down. So I'm pretty sure it was most likely the crackers. I'm just not a fan of textures and the pureed stage has been hard for me. I literally just want to stay on liquids to avoid the mushy foods. [emoji23]

I’m here in Boston area too—- weather is crazy!! We are at about 14 inches so far

I hope your surgery gets rescheduled soon!

I actually just had a thought . I'm gonna call first thing in the morning and see if anyone cancelled . See if since I won't have to work tomorrow. I'm a school bus driver

I'm having mine at BMC . I'll get it done. I feel I should be rescheduled to a date sooner since this is a weather thing not a personal cancelation

5:30 AM, baby, that's when I report for surgery -- woohoo! I am a jumble of nerves, excitement, and impatience, because mostly, I just want this done so I can start the next phase of my life.

I was pleasantly surprised to be discharged early. My surgeon said I was doing really well so there was no need to keep me in the hospital. For the next 2 weeks or so, I am still going to take Metformin and Losartin (blood pressure.) I will only have Metformin taken away if I have either two consecutive readings under 70 or reduced if two lows happen in one week. My blood sugar readings are actually really good right now without Metformin but they want to see what happens once I introduce Protein Shakes and cream Soups on Thursday. So far, so good - no nausea and the Clear Liquids are going down smoothly. Slow sips. They also gave me this funky breathing aparatus that I am supposed to use several times a day. It measures the volume of air that I am able to draw in - LOL! I am able to peg the indicator. Still, they want me doing it. Despite the small setback this morning of drinking a little too quickly, I feel tired but upbeat.

Second day in hospital and I feel great!!! The staff here are amazing and I just woke up from the best sleep. Thanks for your support
