Hey ,that happened to me as well now I'm 7 days out its kinda fading away I do see my dct soon I'm going to address it with him just to be on the safe side Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

Today is my 6th day post-op and cravings came on like a flood. Not so much bad cravings more like salmon on a bed of steam vegetables or a salad or a nice bowl of Soup rather then broth!. When I was in the hospital I was so over the chocolate shakes they had that I was excited to see my vanilla shakes. Now I'm so over vanilla shakes I need to purchase a different flavors. Or can it be I'm just over this liquid phase since I did it 2 weeks pre-op and now a week post -op. Ughhhh I can't wait to get to the pureed phase.

Hi Nicole I lost 20 pounds before surgery and it was only 10 days Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

I kinda wish I had more variety to this liquid stage but I transfer to stage 3 which is Protein shake and smooth pureed food.. the pressure is still there when I swallow or drink too fast but continue to do it because u don't want to keep yourself at stage 1.. you wanna push through it and it will get better Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

I read on this site that alot of people went thru the 2 week pre-op deit. I spoke to my dct and he said it was mandatory to be on the deit. So I chose to do it anyway and it worked out fine. I trust your surgeon knows what to do you will be fine Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

My surgery date was Friday the 13th. It was schedule for 11 am but I was to check in to prep for 9:15. My surgeon finished his previous procedure early so I was next in line. I was hooked up with an IV then I met with my anesthesiologist ,my doctor and his team. At this time I said. My "see you laters" to my mother and grandfather. The anesthesia was then pushed thru to my iv and I was out. My mom said the surgury was very short to her. I remember waking up out of surgery in pain and discomfort,the nurse then pushed Morphin through my Iv and that calmed the pain down. I was then transported to my room where the nurses and pct was very sweet and helpful. Ice chips was given to me and Water for the first night. Saturday they introduce Crystal light and Sunday they introduced shake,broth, and Jello. I was able to take a few sips of each but I still felt gasy so I walked around alot with no results. My dct came to visit and not only did completed the procedure he also found a hernia on my esophagus which he had to minimize. I'm just thankful for this procedure because I would know about that hernia. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App
