That is the coolest news.  I hope i have somewhat the same result when i go for my post op this coming Thursday

I am so glad I came here,  tomorrow will be one week since my RNY.  I felt great the first 2 days, but now feel the same as you were (I hope not still) feeling.  I have little to no appetite, nausea present most of the time. I am struggling to get in the required 62 ozs. of fluid.  I am concentrating on getting down the New Whey 42gms liquid protein.  I mix the 3.5 ozs in 1oz of water and sip, sip, sip. 

I have no desire to eat cream soups, or farina even though I can.  Did try some low fat yogurt today, I used to love it before the surgery, but, today I could barely get it down. 

Hope you are feeling better.

 Congratulations, Laura!  That is SO fantastic, and I know you must be walking on clouds right now! 

I had surgery 9/17 and can have pureed foods on Saturday.  I've been drinking Slim Fast Low Carb drinks for my liquid phase.  My doctor likes us to have bariatric advantage shakes, but I think they're nasty.  Slim Fast is much better.  I'm excited to have applesauce and mashed potatoes on my pureed diet!!  : )

Hey Everyone I am new to Charlotte and in the process of going through the 1st of many visits to SE Bariatrics.  I was wondering if anyone has encountered an exclusion on there employers plan and has succeeded in appealing it.  My employer (large employer) has stated that I am more than welcome to fight it.  Just seems that I thought if I went from a small employer to a large one my chances would be better.  Never thought I would be in the same boat.  Any words of encourangement?  Also has anyone succeded in applying for Medicaid or Medicaire to cover it?
