What is he trying to intake? He should be on Clear Liquids only (water, broth). Is he not able to get sips (not gulps) but tiny sips of Water down? With the swelling he will only be able to take tiny sips of water initially.

I got banded two weeks ago and any thing I drunk tried to come back up, my doctor gave me something for spasm and the next day it stopped. But after three tries of trying to consume liquids I gave up and just sucked ice. The next morning I didnt have that problem..

Banded 9-27

Dr called back several times checking on him gave several options. First try sipping hot fluids broth tea etc to see if the foaming saliva clears our of stomach and he still has some discomfort but keeping half down. He did this several times in 30 minute intervals and calls with dr first couple no success everything came up. This last time a little better. Dr worried about dehydration. Said he should be better after the saliva clears out if not back to hospital for an Iv. Finally resting was able to keep meds down. Thanks everyone for the tips. Dr said to try a straw 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.
