Any advice

Just wondering if anyone else had problems with the Boost in terms of not having constipation and going the other way? As soon I start moving around, my stomach starts churning and I'm in the bathroom. Even immodium isn't doing a whole lot. I'm wondering if it's because the boost isn't 100% lactose free.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Other than that I don't feel too bad, down 8 lbs in 3 days. Think hubby has finally gotten the hint that I am a little testy and not into teasing about food.

I didn't have to do the Boost so I can't offer any advice there, I just wanted to give some moral support, it's a long two weeks but just take it hour by hour if you have to and remember the old saying "this too shall pass".  although it seems to be "passing" a little quicker for you (lol - I kill myself - I'm so funny)   congrats on the 8lbs though! wow!!

 

Thanks NGD, you are hilarious! Feeling some what better today. My tummy is still unhappy but not as bad. Have gotten through some the the major head hunger, now I just need to be able to sleep. Go for my pre op tomorrow then 1 week for surgery. Down 12 lbs this morning.

Hang in there Karen!
The pre-op diet was the most challenging part of the process for me. The weight loss is amazing though. I am thrilled that you are finally getting your turn!
It is worth it. Hang in there.

Actually feeling not too bad the last 2 days. The nausea and runs have slowed down, now if I could just sleep but I am up every 2 hours to go to the bathroom.

Had my pre op assessment today and we are good to go next Wednesday. Nurse is saying you can have boost right up til midnight on Tuesday and I'm like no thanks I'm good...almost passed out though after exam as I sat up too quick. Need to remember to go slower
