That's fantastic! I'm 9 days out and feeling really well. Ran around yesterday and did a lot of errands and was quite tired by the time I got home, but heck, I'm 56 so that would have tired me anyways!lol

Glad to hear that you are all doing well. I am only 6 weeks post op but I can assure you that every day away from the surgery it gets easier and easier and you feel that much better. In a few weeks you will be past the "surgery mentality" phase and well on your way to recovering and hopefully just thinking of managing your food and starting to get fills. One thing that has been a tremendous help to me is working with a nutritionist. I can't recommend this enough.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

      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.
