I started mushies on Friday and this weekend I ate canned venison, pizza,broiled cod,cheese and venison sausage. I don't think of these as mushies. Had no problems eating them though. I drank 5 glasses of wine on Saturday night at party with past co-workers. I know that wasn't smart. Also cals are way up to about 1400 day. Is this acceptable? What are mushies? Could I have damaged anything? I don't think so, and feel good. What should one be consuming 2 weeks after surgery? As far as streghting my pouch shouldn't I have thrown up because of over stuffing? Did I over stuff? Any advice please Bearbelly

Hi MMM How did it go? Hope every thing went well. Blessings Bearbelly

Well, surgery went great. No anxiety total peace about surgery. Its been 4 days now and I excited again about my new journey. Blessings Bearbelly

Thank you health4life for your input. Talked with doc today and he said "no problem chewing now" after surgery you suck in air and it can give you an uncomfortable feeling. Later, shouldn't be a problem. Blessings Bearbelly

I just started my 2 week pre-op liquid diet. Major headaches and this is only day 2. My question is can I chew sugar-free gum? I like to chew gum and forgot to ask Doctor Peace bearbelly

Hi Steve I'm into day two with the liquid diet, this is pretty tough. My head is pounding all the time and I'm so hungry. I heard it gets better after the 3rd day, I hope so. Hope your having a great weekend Blessings bearbelly

This is my first day on liquid diet and holy @$#! I'm hungry. My head is pounding only 13 days to go (surgery) Hope tomorrow is better Bearbelly

I just received a call and was told that my Dr will not be able to do my surgery now for 3 or more months I could still have surgery on scheduled date but if I'm willing to have another Doc do it. Has anyone had surgery or fills by Dr Sunby? Blessings Bearbelly

Hi Jack, I only use it for relaxing and stress, no problems that require the use. My concern is will it pull the tube from port to band and do any damage? Peace Bearbelly

Thank you MMM I start my liquid tomorrow and stay on that for 2 weeks. Consist of shakes (Nutimed) 8 each day and 2 bars(Advanced Health Systems) and lots of Water Can't really say after surgery (Feb 6th) Blessings bearbelly

Hi Mrboswell, I would love to join your group, and share in your support group website. A little info about myself, I'm 45 years old and been overweight most of my life. I got married at the age of 18 to a girl I met in high school. At that time I weighed 142 pounds, now I'm twice the man I was then. I work as a Mental Health Tech and love my job. I also use music to help people deal with stress, depression and anxiety. I believe everyone has a song within them to bless others. I weigh 294 pounds and want to drop 100 to 115 pounds I start my pre surgery diet on Friday with surgery on Feb 6th, 2009 I would like to find friends who would like to help each other in this journey of weight loss. Blessings Bearbelly dan@spiritlakeflutecircle.com

My surgery is on Feb 6th and want to know if I can continue using my inversion table. Has anyone used one and did you have problems using it after surgery? Blessings bearbelly

Hi Steve, When you began your journey with your weight loss did you go on the liquid diet? If so, how long did your's last. Also what advice would you have for the first week after surgery? Is there anything you wish you could have done different that week? Have a great day Dan
