What Should I Be Feeling? Post Op Day 3



Recommended Posts

I am post op day 2 and I wish I could burp.

Right now I feel so full I can hardly get any Water down. I have had a little chicken broth down but that is it. I feel really bloated in my stomach but I am down from my surgery weight.. I just want to feel better soon.

Oh man, the burping will come. And the hiccups. They are not pleasant! Hang in there. My turn-around day was Day 6. Felt like a new woman. Drink what you can when you can.

I just had surgery on the 26th and I still feel very sore. My throat has been hurting and it hurts to swallow. I am a stomach sleeper so I've been using a pillow to keep from rolling onto my stomach during the night. Most of my pain is underneath my rib cage on the left side.. and when I move a certain way it feels like I can feel my stomach move.. very weird..

      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.
