Thank you so much for the advice. I tried eating Salmon tonight and it just sat at the top of my stomach for a hour. I would like to just stick to the liquid protein for now. But so.eone who had the same surgery said I have to eat solids to get my stomach back in shape. I think though I am going to revert to the liquid protein for another week or two.

Eating is a struggle. I would rather just drink protein shakes as I can hardly eat anything more then a bite or two. I dont see the point. Lol. Feel tired alot.

Made it home, completed my 3rd week post op. I started the pre op diet at 328 pounds. I just did blood work and doc check. I do have low blood pressure, the doc thinks it is the rapid weight loss. I got dizzy and almost passed out at work. But I am now 288 pounds.

I went to Mexico for the surgery as it was way to expensive in Ohio. The drainage tube just came out, but these nurses I dont think are actually RN's, thet are super young and half the time I think they are guessing. The IV was leaking, twice, then they put it back just the IV line directly into the needle port no little connector. **** like that worries me.

They got me in early it was last night. Recovering now. We will hopefully both be skinny! How are you feeling today?

I am on day 8 of my 2 week preop diet, surgery is Saturday. This diet is seriously kicking my ass. I read posts where people are saying it gets better after 3 days.....lies, I tell ya! Lol It is just as bad as day 1 but now I am tired asf, no stamina. I climb stairs at work all night and my quads are singing Stand by me, every step. I am going to do it because I do not want any complications during the surgery. But my diet seems alot stricter then most these people. I started this at 330 pounds, 6ft. I eat 8 Oz a lean protein a day and 3 protein shakes. Unlimited starch less veggies. But really folks, who wants that sh1t?? If we wanted to snack on veggies we wouldnt be a fatass. Liquid phase starts Thur, oh God, pray for me, any tips, not allowed pickles on my diet so scratch that.
