Angella....You are feeling the normal things......when you move to mushies....try something like Oatmeal or Cream of Wheat with Brown Sugar....it is warm and fills you up.........and eat things like yogart and stuff that will stick with you a bit.....you will still be hungry until you get a few fills like others have stated out here. Good Luck.

It took me a bunch of fills to finally feel some restriction! I had the same thought which was that this thing was not going to work for me and that I would be the only person that would fail at it, etc. Its a normal feeling. I am also a slow loser. I will say this. Start exercising NOW!!! It will make a world of difference for you. I was hungry too until I had some restriction. If you don't feel restriction, keep going back for another fill until you get restriction. Good luck!

Breakfast=nothing Lunch=Leftover Italian Chicken Capellini but not much of the noodles...just focused on chicken (but some came back up) Dinner= Joe's Crab Shack. Calamari-2 but came up, 2 stuffed mushrooms and 1/2 of a crab cake (but some came back up).

I do something similar but use the "Lil Smokies" with 1 bottle of any BBQ Sauce, 1/2 jar of Grape Jelly and a Jigger of Whiskey (like Crown Royal, Jack Daniels etc). Cook on low for 3 hours in crock pot.

I am going to try this one......everything you suggest is delicious it seems GG.

Now, I walk 1/4, jog 1 mile, walk 1/4 and jog another mile and then walk 1/4-1/2 miles depending on time etc. I sometime now can actually walk 1/4 then jog 2 miles.....however, I will slow the pace or mph down on the 2nd mile I really feel so much better jogging now.

Mine was so bad today b/c we went to Tulsa, OK for Thanksgiving with my in-laws....had the usual T-Day food, turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing and the works and 3 cookies. I feel miserably fat now and I am getting back on tomorrow but only until Thursday when i have to cook too! Urgh! :laugh::laugh:

If you are hungry, move on to mushies like Oatmeal and yogart etc. It will help fill you up. Why be miserable and hungry?!

My surgery was on a Friday and I was back at work on Monday;however, in retrospect, I wish I had taken off a couple of days instead. Overall, its not a bad surgery at all.
