Just got banded and Im on Day 4 feeling sick



Recommended Posts

I've managed to get down a few ounces over the last 4 days but nothing more. Food(or should i say Protein Shakes and broth) isnt appealing and the smell of any food makes me want to get sick. When I breathe in every once in awhile I'm sore-is that normal?? So I've been in bed and on my pain meds for 4 days..I just want to cry!:smile:

Day 4 was the day I got out of bed and started walking. That act alone made me feel so much better. It helps with the gas, the pain and the bloating.

food, liquid or not, will be better in just a few days. But for now, walk, walk and walk... and drink lots of Water.

Good Luck...

I am four days post op also!!! and i have one spot on my left side where if i breath in deep or roll just right to get up.. it is KILLER pain.. like i can feel something moving.. or rubbing against my ribs i also still have some gas pains under my diaphram that i can feel all the way up to my collar bone.. I think it will go away eventually.. maybe not as soon as we would like BUT it will. I have been up and about since surgery (even got shopping done day after christmas). And that has helped a lot.. I would say to try keeping up with the walking and see if that helps.. i'll keep ya posted as to what i am doing too.. sounds like the same pain almost.. TAKE CARE!!! DECEMBER DELIGHTS!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
