Hello Melissa, Topdowndog, and luvmy3boyz.... I am also an October 16th bandster and doing pretty good on the fourth day out... I was a little weak today, but I think it was from being on the clear liquid diet and needing something a little more. I had a yogurt smoothie and a bowl of cream of wheat and I feel much better...

I haven't had any problems with gas pains and was lucky not to get a sore throat... My throat would get dry and hoarse but that was about it... I only got the nausea feeling once, but I did get the hiccups alot, but a couple sips of Water would take care of that.... I am very pleased with my progress so far and I'm looking forward to a healthier way of life...

Good luck and many blessings to all of the October bandsters and keep us posted on your journey...

nickanut,

VERY glad to hear you are doing well! I actually felt human today!! LOL I also was weak, so I ate some yummy enchilada Soup from Chili's. It helped that I was able to eat cream Soups today! I weaned myself off of pain meds yesterday but today I woke up with a withdrawl headache, so I took one last itsy bitsy dose. Hopefully that will get me off of them completely. So far tylenol and motrin have been doing the job. Hope you are not in much pain anymore either!!!

UPdates!! I would love updates from the others as well on how they are doing on the 4th day out!
