14 more sleeps and shakes all round...

SO...\i am on the home stretch....Sleeve being done May 10th with Dr B...I tried to start today with using Boost for b'fast and lunch...but by 3 pm \i had a spilting headache....so I had my steak and veggies....BUT my question is...I know I can't chew gum after the surgery...but what about while I am on the 2 week shake diet.....I didn't like the taste of the boost today...so I am just looking for same advice......Gum or no Gum??????

i don't remember them saying we couldn't have gum, just prob make sure you don't swallow it.

you can always call and ask what they say, but i'm sure i had some gum during the 2 week diet.

I hate to tell you but you will have a headache for the first 3 to 5 days on the starvation diet!

WELL..I made it through the first day.....had a headache all evening and my tummy was rumbling up a storm....the shakes are good...not bad at all..and I really like the bars...just a shock as to how little we actually get.....today I will try to save my bar to the evening time to hold me over better.....still haven't really heard too much from anyone about the GUM issue...I ended up having a piece last night...just a nice blast of mint to take my mind off the rumbles in the tummy....13 more sleeps....... 

i start my shakes in 6 days, im not looking forward to it :)

I also bought some Almond and Coconut Extract to add some different favors to the vanilla and the Choc. too.....I am enjoying the Crystal light in my water, but I have to hide it from my kids as they like it too....the hardest part is cooking for the rest of the family and not tasting anything or licking off a finger this morning when making cupcakes with the kids.....oh well...
I did jump on the scales and was daoen a total of 18 lbs from Feb....so another 20 or so pre-surgery will be a nice start to the summer....
