Life without NSAIDS?
I wasn’t told that, but I use them for the same purpose. I get a lot of headaches and Tylenol doesn’t do anything. I have been taking Motrin since I was 14 for migraines. However my pcp told me years ago to take my Omperazole or Antiacids before I take it to prevent damage to the stomach. So if you have to use it take something prior.

What was everyone's first puree ?
Clam Chowder! Then I did tuna salad. Then a few days in I made chicken gravy using baked chicken thighs and served it over potatoes.... it was great. By day 3 I got sick from it, so that was the end of that.

After my surgery I'm looking forward to...............
My double chin and belly to shrink, also my hunchback to disappear and my skin to lighten up. Overall just feeling comfortable and no pains.

WILLPOWER
I love sweets so I understand! However use the surgery as motivation... what if you don’t lose the 10lbs and you can’t get the surgery???? So just keep that in mind when the junk foods are in your face. Eye on the prize!

Water intake
So am I, but I’m not throwing from drinking. However tonight was the first time in 2wks I got sick(both ends).... I think I’m dehydrated because I keep getting headaches, and I’m not using the bathroom that much.

Who is sick of purees? Some fresh ideas...
I made chicken gravy. 6 boneless and skinless chicken thighs baked in chicken broth. Cooked for about an hr. then poured it all in the blender. To make gravy flour, butter and heavy whipping cream then add the chicken. Served over potatoes. Was really good. This has been the best thing I’ve had in 2 wks.

November 2018 Sleevers!?!?
I had surgery yesterday(11/20/18)!!! I was discharged this afternoon, but last night was rough. The gas was terrible and I was having a hard time breathing because of it, plus I had a terrible headache and a panic attack from waking up in pain and feeling like I couldn’t breathe. I was given Ativan and pain meds which helped. Today I’m still experiencing gas between my ribs and lungs which sucks. However I’m not having issues drinking and keeping things down. I found a protein this really good for clear liquids “Profuse Wild berry” I enjoyed it plus they made me a milk based shake this morning “Chocolate covered strawberries “ (which was 2 powdered shake mixes by Nectar) it was super delicious... just too much right now, I need to be doing clear protein for now. Well Happy Thanksgiving sleevers!
