Made it :) my doctor does no allow any liquids, ice chip till tomorrow. Meany

be okay :-) if they give you the sticks with the Water you can rub it around inside your mouth it'll keep your mouth moist. I couldn't have ice chips or anything until after my upper G.I.

My surgery date was October 1st. Its nice to read all the positive comments. I feel great! I can see my body shrinking. I have lost 11 pounds since my surgery date. Just ate a weight watchers fudge popsicle I hope it dont make me sick. I am looking forward to Oct 20 thats when I will get to introduce more food. I currently get 5 foods, cottage cheese, yogurt, Beans, sf pudding & egg white. I have not tried an egg yet. My NUT said if anything bothers me it will be the egg. So I am scared. Getting my Water & a 50 gram Protein Shake in daily. Thank you for starting this thread. :)

Isopure Dutch chocolate. I really like it I mix 2 scoops with 12 ounces skim milk & sip on it through out the day. I ordered creamy vanilla but it has not came in yet.

Thanks, I'm going to get online and give it a try.

my leak test isnot till morning and they even said no swabs. Though big relief, I remembered I had brought my biotene samples toothpaste, mouth tinse, they allowed me to use those.

Went to the movies tonight. Thought about all that popcorn, pop, candy etc...on the way there. There were a couple of people in a row beside us eating away. I thought to myself that used to be me. I took in my bottle Water & sipped away. I can do this life is not all about food.

LisaCO, you can do it. I am just 3 weeks post op, and I went to the movies Sunday. Usually I raise the arm rest to be more comfortable...not Sunday night. Just that little thing made me glad I had surgery. ????????

Tonight was my first night without meds. No pain but no sleep either. Hoping this is not the beginning of an insomnia bout.

Heading for my leak test then I finally have fluids. Not a drop sine Monday, hopefully it will gone down smoothly.

ETA no leak test yet, guess I was misinformed, I am not first. And they have a 10 to do today. Hope I am not last.

I was the first to have one leak test yesterday but when I finally got my tray I didn't really eat anything I drink like half of the 24 g Protein shot and a couple sips of juice and some sips of Water

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
