Im sorry to be such a Debbie Downer... especially being the new girl on the board.  :S  

My RNY is scheduled for this Wednesday.  I've had surgery before, but not for many years - before I had children.  I'm an emotional basket case.  I hate to be so morbid, but I'm afraid I won't wake up.  Makes me very sad to think about... and I've considered writing my daughters letters.  Did anyone else do this?   I'm trying to remain calm... I don't want to talk to my family about it because I don't want them to worry any more than they already are.  I'm really not normally such a maniac... This emotional rollercoaster has thrown me threw a loop. 

Thanks for listening.  :)

If you can have yogurt and tolerate that, try it, that might be a bit more filling.  I am not allowed any solid or semi solid food until 4/30, ugh and we went to Ikea yesterday and that cinnamon roll smell hit.  His mom offered me just a nibble, but I was good and said no, I do not want to even tempt the fate of dumping.

For the one who asked about protein.  I am totally in love with Nectar.  Right now I have the Lemon tea flavor, and when I mix it, I put a sf lemonade drink mix with it, to help kill the whey flavor.  Fuzzy navel is another good one, which I need to order.  But I also thought with the tea of mixing it with decafl Iced tea.  

 I am right there with you. I had my surgery friday. I needed to get out of the house so bad. We took the kids to see the blue angele. Then DH drug me to the playground and mcdonalds. Oh it was so hard to sit there and watch everyone eat. The man next to me was eating my fav. Fish filet ;0(. oh how my mouth watered for one. I have never in my life longed to eat pureed food. BUT omg my body wants it so bad.As much as i drink i just can not seem to make myself feel full. I wan to try stage 1 baby foods or something. But hey i did loose 7lbs so i must be doing something right.

One of my friends on facebook keeps posting recipies and pictures of food she mad. I sent her an email and told her i had to delete her as a friend till i can eat again. lmao. Sorry to ramble on but i am having a day like your night was.

How do i change my ticker to say i lost 7 lbs?
