Hey! I can't eat anything...liquid diet for me and I Want To Eat!!!!!!

P.S ..... HELP!

Cutie Miss- I went through this on my 2 week preop diet. You are not physically hungry, you are head hungry. When this happened to me I just decided to ignore my brain. Your brain is a food addict and it is despartaly trying to get you to feed the addiction. Beat it, don't give in. I honestly think my 2 week preop diet had little to do with shinking my liver and a whole lot to do with me breaking up with food.

Ohh too fluffy, thanks, I guess one once of super thin mashed potatoes, wont do a lot, but at least it will trick myself, that ate something, im not super starving but just want to taste something a little different.

Cutie Miss...im a bit hungry too, please know that you are not alone, we all going thru this..

I think im going to try 2 spoons of mashed potatoes.

Guys I am going to try and hang in there. I'm going to try to at least wait until I'm 2weeks post op before I go there....fingers crossed plus I don't want to bust a gutt! : /

Hi! I'm so excited to find all you fellow January 13thers lol

I went from the band to the sleeve on Monday. Very happy to no longer have the band. I had been having trouble for yrs with it. It turns out that I had scar tissue on my liver and stomach from the band which was causing me all of my problems.

Spent 2 night in the hospital. Yesterday I could hardly keep my eyes open. Today I'm more awake and trying to get the protein and fluids in. I'm even diluting prune juice!!

Incision pain has had its moments of being terrible on and off. But I actually woke up this morning sleeping on my tummy which felt so good and was surprising.

I'm on full liquids for 2 weeks except I take some of my meds with applesauce which is so refreshing!

Are you all still sleeping a lot? I slept a lot less today but still had quite a few naps. Naps are a wonderful thing.

Looking forward to joining the bm club lol.

Feel good and sleep well tonight.

Well I had a moment, n hubby kick me out of the kitchen, n I just drink a 3 ounce of chocolate ensure n sipping on water now...

Welcome to the group dlm59 :)

Having a problem with diahrrea. Called the nutritionist yesterday and she told me to switch from the whey protein drinks to EAS which is soy based. Had one last night with no problems, but had one this morning and I'm back with the trotzkies. If this continues I'll call my doctor's cell phone. I don't want dehydration.

One good thing about my doctor. You don't have to go through an answering service to get him. He gives his personal cell number and that of his wife who is his nurse.

Anyone feeling bloated...moody?? Ugh!

Cute Miss I'm not feeling blooded or moody but I did up until today. I'm felling frustrated with the protein soup would really love another taste of something!

I am starting to get nausea from all the liquids..bout to try a couple a couple tsp of pudding

Hey cutie miss are you sure your not getting nausia from that antibiotic? I get very sick when I take them on anything less than a full stomach. Also I took one yesterday at the airport with lunch but lunch was a thin broth from the Chinese resturant. In about 20 min I was puking my guts out sick. Try taking them after a full protein shake. Also if a dr can call you in some finegrin don't know if that's spelled right but pronounced fin e grin it will take away the Nausia

Hey nolagirl soooo glad to see u are back and doing OK!!!!!! But I am not on any antibiotics I was doing good with liquids for a while but I've drunk them so much the thought of them just makes me sick. When can u have pudding, because I will take that over liquids about right now!
