Okay I had surgery Tuesday and have done quite well. Minimal pain and gas, nausea only once and getting all my fluids in. Problem? I'm starving. Shouldn't I not be hungry? I cannot eat until June 17th! That's forever from now! 11 days!!!! I'll be miserable. What have you all done? Am I the only hungry one??

Congrats!!! See you on the other side!! -
I just has to maintain before surgery. I only lost 3 lbs. and my doc said what shrinks your liver is the 24 hour liquid diet before surgery.

What's the timeline for eating some of these typical foods?
wadetb7 replied to hrhlaurie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My doc said avocado is handled by tummy perfectly, it's just too fattening to use regularly. That's why he says sparingly. -

I agree wholeheartedly. Can't return to previous habits without expecting the same results. I didn't go through this to go back to those eating habits. -

Those things are permanently off the list. There is no nutritional value in corn, noodles, rice potatoes, chips, taco shells for our small tummies. Protein first. It has more seity and will stick with you. Avocado is really fattening and to be eat very sparingly. Lettuce in salad fills tummy but not with what it needs-protein!!! -

So reading all of this came at the right time. I woke up and weighed and went up 1.2 lbs. I was sleeved 11 days ago. Maybe it's swelling? Either way I'll quit weighing.

Jennifer your story sounds identical to mine. I'm 8 days post op. My largest incision hurt for days. MUCH better now. I, too, decided to sleep in the recliner as the bed killed my abs. I also has a hernia repair. I had no clue I had a hiatal hernia. Go figure. Glad you're on the mend!!! Every day is better!!!!! -
