June 12, 201313 yr Never to soon to start! I had mine on the 11th!?? Anyone else in June yet? And how's it going?
June 12, 201313 yr Pretty good had my surgery June 5th so 7days post. I miss food and it may b in my head but its torture the protein shakes I hope everyone else is doing well and any weigh ins yet?
June 12, 201313 yr I had mine on the 3rd. I don't mind food. I'm trying to find something to drink besides protein drinks and milk. Water tastes blah...
June 12, 201313 yr Had surgery on the 4th. I'm finally feeling great just a little bloated. I'm on the pureed stage so any concoction I come up with is delish. The more I walk the better I feel. Down 25 lbs so far.
June 13, 201313 yr That's great! Anything you really like you wanna share? I need some ideas! For Breakfast I blend cream of wheat, pineapple with natural juices and soy milk. You can have that cold or hot. I also live smoothies with low fat yogurt in morning. For lunch I had tuna, chicken broth to add moisture and salsa. I heated that up and it was great! For dinner I had turkey chili with cheese melted in. Make sure you pick thinjs with lots of Protein.The key is blend everything and make sure it's wet and soupy. I only can tolerate 2-3 oz so be prepared to eat off it for a few days.
June 13, 201313 yr I'm 6 days out and down 12.6 lbs. Not hungry but desperately want to actually chew and feel food in my mouth. I'm so tired of just sipping.
June 13, 201313 yr Author Yes I'm sure that's gonna get old fast! Thank goodness it's only a week... Then full liquid diet, then purée! But good luck to you and great job! I can't wait to go home tomorrow !
June 13, 201313 yr June 10th, was my surgery, did anyone experience red stuff in their stool the first time you were able to go? And sometimes with the gas? Today was my first time using it and passing gas, it looked like blood but I don't know could also be that barium stuff.

I still get dizzy walking to much idk if anyone else does but I'm not dehydrated at all any thoughts? I get dizzy and tired. I think it's just the lack of calories etc from being on liquids.
