My dad is coming to get me on his way home from work. Gonna visit with him and my mom for a while. Then he's going to take me grocery shopping for some things people have suggested like condensed Soups and Carnation Instant Breakfast.< /div>

I know Protein Powder isn't sitting well with you but try non fat dry milk powder mixed into Soup or the carnation instant breakfast. It has 8grams of Protein in a scoop. It'll be nice to get out if the house and having a change of scenery. Getting some fresh air might help too

That's good. Carnation Instant Breakfast is so yummy too! I've always loved it and can't wait till I can have it. Lol I'm sorry you're having such a hard time holding things down! That's terrible. If it keeps up, make sure you go in for some fluids.

I got my surgery time for tomorrow. I check in at 9 and surgery is at 11. I am nervous now...

I go in at 8am and they told me I was probably the last surgery of the day. What's up with that? Last surgery of the day and no liquids! I'm not looking forward to the day long wait. :angry:

I am sorry that stinks. I was worried about going 12+ hours without anything to drink too. Ill drink a glass at midnight.

They aren't making me do a bowel prep because I've been on liquids for thirty days. I did drink 1/2 of magnesium citrate because I wanted cleaned out. Kind of regretting that now. Liquids in liquids out. I have a headache too but afraid to take anything for it.

Tylenol should be ok...that's about the only thing my surgeon allows.

Maybe they're not doing that many surgeries tomorrow. ?? It seems kinda cruel to make you go that long with nothing. Maybe IVs.

They told me no aspirin a week before or after ever. I wasn't sure about Tylenol the night before so thought I would error on the safe side.

I'll have to try the milk powder. I did hold down some skim milk with protein powder mixed with iced coffee this afternoon. Wasn't bad.

I hope I like the Carnation as much as everyone else. Seems to get rave reviews!!!

All that came up on me today was the two super cold things I tried - Jello and a popsicle. Tasted so good going in tho! lol

Me too! New to this forum. So ready to start anew! I'm also a school teacher so hopefully this will give me enough time to figure out food for lunch next year...

Me toooo! I teach too, so plenty of time to recover before school starts again....

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
