    I am in week 3 post op and don't feel like eating nothing seems appetizing this week and I am nauseated. Any suggestions? I am so tired of protein shakes that each time I take a sop I feel sick again. Sent from my SM-N950W using BariatricPal mobile app

    Starbucks

    Thank you everyone. I ended up having an ice Rooibos with 2 scoops of tea, 2 pumps of sugar free vanilla syrup, no fat milk, extra ice and extra water. It tasted great and did not bother my stomach at all. I researched the menu before I met my friend and knew what I wanted to order before I arrived.

    My Journey

    I am 58 years old and have had a lap band for 11 years. The fact that I am in this forum shows that I was not successful and have now gone through a year of analysis to see if I qualify for bypass surgery. My surgery day is June 10th and I have one week of slim fast under my belt. Needless to say I am HUNGRY. Unlike some other places I have not been allowed any meals and can have 4 shakes a day along broth and sugar free jello. I have decided to post a pic I took today and even though I would never have approved it for publication I want to be honest.

    My Journey

    Thanks Carrot64. I went back on track yesterday and have decided I'm not going to put myself in a situation where I can't control myself. I I think part of the problem is that I was fasting for 3 days as my surgery was scheduled for June 3rd and then it was rescheduled for June 10th and then I was able to eat for another three days had to start all over again. so I'd gone through three days of not eating and being on track when my surgery changed and was upset and frustrated

    Bulletwithbutterflywings, thank you for the encouragement I have been beating myself up all night. Thinking what the hell am I doing I am having major surgery on Monday and if I can't do this I am setting myself up for failure. Today I am going to get back on track and work hard at drinking water. I too like that saying and am going to see if I can somehow set it up on my phone as a reminder this week.

    My Journey

    OMG thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement. I don't understand why people that think that they can treat us like that. I too have been through depression and I'm still on meds hopefully I can get off those someday. I don't know why some surgeons let you have small meals each day While others like in Ontario make you not eat at all. I don't know how you did this for a month did you cheat? I went to a barbecue on the weekend on while I sat inside when everyone ate I did have a few nachos with some homemade guacamole. And one evening last week I had tomato soup and crackers. I have a stomach ache and diarrhea and have had to start taking Imodium. I think part of the problem is I'm not drinking any water cuz I find it I have to remind myself. My mom's side of the family is all bigger and several my family members have had the surgery. I haven't shared my journey with anybody in my family yet although I suspect once they start seeing new pictures of me y'all guess what happened. My dad had many forms of arthritis and died at age 65. I have osteoarthritis severe in my hands which sucks because I use a computer all day at work. Congratulations on your successful Journey so far and thank you very much for the nice words sharing your intimate stories. When I started the fasting I had questioned my decision but I too feel like what I've done so far in the past hasn't worked and I'm not going to live forever. I find the story encouraging and I'm glad I took this first step towards sharing my story.
