Hi Melisa, my surgery went well sore for a few days but got better each day. I am on pureed foods now for 2 more weeks. I have lost 12 lbs. so far. I also have to have 3 cups of protein shakes a day in between my meals. I get full after I eat so that's good cause I don't see the Dr. till Sept. 19 again. I never thought in a million years I would get full on a half a cup of food.LOL Good Luck to you!

:thumbup:That is wonderful!!! Im soo happy for you! I cant wait to have mine! Im kinda getting nervous because everything seems to be going sooo smooth and the ball is rolling faster that i thought..very scary for me. I see the psy for my evaluation this monday. Im trying to loose my 5% right now which is hard. Ive lost 2 lbs ...only 10 to go lol. Was the liquid diet the first two weeks hard? ANd how is the food thing going right now?:mad2:

The liquid diet was not bad at all.I was allowed 3 protein shakes a day and sugar free pudding and yogurt. Also sugar free jello and popsicles. I got full really fast because of the swelling in my stomach, but that has gone down. I was really nervous too before surgery but it wasn't that bad at all. Make sure you ask for pain meds, I had to ask for mine when it was time they didn't just bring it to me. Talk to you soon!

wow im soo excited to hear that. I had my psy appointment today and it went soo well. Only 30 min and done! Now im just trying to loose the 12 lbs b4 surgery.:blink:...its hard...darnit...but im trying. Im also waiting for the letter in the mail from the surgeon telling me what further tests he wants. Everything is going smooth and steady...im happy and excited but it seems like its still going slow lol. Hey what protein shake did you end up buying...? i dont even know where to start. Also what vitamins did you end up getting?
