2 Days Post-Op



Recommended Posts

Was banded on Friday 07/27. The surgery went really well. I am in a bit of pain but it is bearable. I'm not feeling hungry at all, and have hardly had anything. I am trying my best to get Water in as I know I have to stay hydrated. I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to feel in terms of restriction?

you will feel restriction due to the surgery.

the other restriction will come with your fills later on.

you just had major surgery so sip as much as you can and do your sf popsicles to help with that.

Hey guys, I'm now 6 days post-op, doing well, healing fast, have been feeling hungry though. Trying to drink lots of Water. Can't wait for this liquid phase to be over! I've been craving the craziest things, what I would give for a slice of toast right about now. I been doing good around food and have been sticking to liquids despite cooking for my husband everyday. Hope you guys are all doing well also :)

      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.
