  1. Getting healthy 123

    18 days post-op

    Hello everyone. I had gastric bypass surgery on May 19, and thankfully no complications so far. I was discharged from the hospital the day after surgery. Right now some of my stitches are sticking through and that is really annoying, but the incisions all seem to be pretty well healed. I started on "mushy food" and I have been tolerating them we'll, but have been finding that once I eat I continue to get hungry the rest of the day. Most things I read and people I have spoke to said they do not have hunger, but that does not seem to be the case with me. My nutritionist thinks I need more Fluid but I am already drinking almost 3 liters a day. Has anyone else experienced this? I also have been craving foods the last couple of days. Am nervous that is hunger and cravings are happening this quickly I may not be successful long term. Any thoughts or advise? So far I have lost 19 pounds since surgery and about 10 pounds pre-op. I am moving in the right direction, but I am still scared that I may have put myself through all this and I might fail! Thanks for "listening". I appreciate any words of wisdom.
