UUUGGG, I can't believe it is day 6 and I am still as hungry as I was day 2. I find when I get too hungry I feel nauseated and today I found myself praying to the porcline throne. Of course with nothing in my stomach, there is nothing to throw up. Just gross tasting bile. Oh my. I am finding this really hard. Where I am on slimfast, I wonder if I can eat slimfast bar instead of the shake once a day. Just to have something in my stomach. I hate to call Rinette with this. Don't want to sound like I am whining but shouldn't this get easier as time goes on. OMG, I stlill have 8 days to go. Oh yeah, I have still only lost 4 pounds since last Wednesday, so that still makes me up 2 pounds since last weigh in. SUCKS!

Sorry, don't mean to whine. I am just hungry and crabby.

I would definitely call Rinette.  I found that Slimfast made me nauseated that is why I didn't go with it.  Perhaps now that the Meditrim is available you would try a few of them.  Check them out on the Minogue website.  Perhaps Rinette would allow you to try their bars if you can afford it.

But hang in there, I know its not easy and it is no fun but the reason is that you have to focus on.  You have come too far to mess up or give up now.  Please, call Rinette.  They want you to call, they don't want you to sit home and second guess yourself.  They are always kind on the phone and will bend over backwards to try to help you through this difficult stage.

Hey Maggie

This weather is getting everyone down..... I can not wait for this horrid winter to be over!

Hang in there kiddo - I would call the surgeons office that is what they are there for - let her know that you are throwing up bile - I am sure she will have some suggestions.

Maybe she will give the go ahead on the bars..... I am not sure if the nutritional value is the same.

You can do this -you have to shrink that liver girl- when we lose weight the first thing that happens is our liver shrinks and you dont have to lose a lot - this is for your safety and so that you have a smoother surgery.

Hang in there- paint away - put on some music and move your groove thang girlfriend.

You are almost half way there.......

hugs

Thank you both. I will call Rinette tomorrow. I really don't feel well. I am freezing. I'm curled up on the couch with 2 cats huddled up beside me. Wish they were bigger so they'd spread more warmth. Got the heater turned on near me as well as the baseboards turned up. No fever just feeling unwell. Think it's because I'm so hungry I feel sick, weak and cold.  I haven't managed to catch anything that's been going around. Maybe Rinette will have some suggestions tomorrow. Thinking about those bloody refried beans again. LOL

Oh Maggie,
I hope you aren't getting the stomach flu.  I am glad you are calling Rinette tomorrow.  I think if anything it will set your mind at ease.  Go curl up in bed and get some rest.  

Hoping you feel better soon,
Ann

You may want to switch to the Medi Trim. i understand that they deliver within days of the order. If it works like Opti Fast, you are not hungry. It is also cheaper- about 3.00 per meal (bar or shake). You couldn't eat regular (healthy) food that cheap.

Minogue is speedy.  I ordered late Thursday, they shipped on Friday and it was delivered to my door on Monday.  I think it was Purolator.  I was at work or I would have started as soon as it was delivered but I waited until Tuesday.  

If you can afford a week's worth of Meditrim - go for it.  I think you will feel better.

Oh Catherine, I'm so dumb. I was having a hard time trying to get all of the water and slimfast in and realized yesterday that I was missing  some cans of slimfast the past two days. That may have been why I was so hungry. I did better yesterday and did indeed feel better. I guess I was having one of those DUH moments. LOL Thank you for asking.
