February 2014 Surgeries

[2nd timer]

I'm feeling much better still sore and uncomfy walking,l and sleeping. But feeling hungry! I'm liquid only now for 2 weeks and I'm 4 days post op. Any ideas how to take hunger away?

I'm the same I now mix milk ice n 100% total fage to milk n blend. I have a huge blended full pop as on pre op milk diet. You could always just have fage n see, its Greek yogurt but slips down n is healthy n yummy.

Setting off for my surgery sunday night/monday morning and my TV blew this morning

So much for relaxing infront of the TV for the first few days after I get back.

I was put on sloppy straight away, but am not hungry at all.... ,managed a little watered down sieved soup yesterday and some watered down porridge but nothing to speak of. Today have had a 50g fromage frais (on my sheet was recommended 150g) for breakfast and just now had a few spoonfuls of watered down sieved soup. Sheet recommends a whizzed up shepherds pie for tea but not sure i'll manage that, possible a scrambled egg. Was surprised to be straight to sloppy was expecting fluids which may have suited me better tbh.
Sorry to hear your feeling hungry hun, hoping i feel a bit hungrier in a couple more days, My team are ringing monday so will check all ok with them...... maybe you could ask your team about having something a bit more filling :wave_cry: Hugs x x x

I was on liquid straight from my op Monday afternoon to Wednesday morning. Then was started on purée and will be on them for 3/4 weeks. I started to feel hungry again yesterday, but not major hunger just know when I'm ready for something.. I was expecting to feel hungry so soon after tbh... Xxx

Oh bummer
not good news my tv has been my salvation, esspecially at silly o'clock in the morning when every one in the whole world is asleep.
Can you get movies on pc or alike
Hubby brought me a portable dvd player several months ago when we were in temporary accommodation, about £50 not cheap but invaluable at the time, when we spent our days just sitting in the car just to pass the hours lol

Hope you manage to get sorted soon. Have you heard of freecycle maybe worth a try. (place where people advertise things for free)

Xxxxx good luck for next week x x x

Hi Hun, I'm from Cambridgeshire . HAd a band, meds ruined it, caused me no end of troubles n illness. I have chronic psoriatic arthritis which is an auto immune disease. Other things too. I'm 54 n young in my hesd, but body letting me down so I'm really hoping that this weight loss happens n I can be back to my fun loving mischievous self )) I was a size 14/16 two years ago, want to be back as me rather than six stones heavier




This is me a few years back. Apply to go back there , I hope .
Good luck twinny x
