Ok so how are you doing ? I'm doing ok just the gas pain is awful and I'm so thirsty but can't or don't want to drink anything just started on ice chips and that has helped ... I've been getting up and walking to the end of my driveway then come back in to rest.... How are you doing ?

Just got out of hospital this morning, i'm doing okay, still in quite a bit of pain, mainly the gas pain as well,

but my shoulder has been absolutely killing me for the last 2 days, worse than the gas pain, but it's

starting to subside thank god, i'm not thirsty or hungry but my stomach grumbles which hurts even more

so i have to drink! I have to say it's a lot more painful than i thought it would be, but I know it'll be over

soon :) I've been walking around a bit as well which does help, but i feel so weak it's hard to walk too

far. Hope you feel better soon :)

      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.
