Early june 2013 banders?



Recommended Posts

I attempted to sleep in bed last night( I had been sleeping in the recliner). I didn't sleep worth a flip. I was constantly awake and asleep. Sore in my shoulders. Will this stupid gas ever go away? So I'm up way to early and back in my recliner hoping to doze a bit more. Good luck to everyone venturing back to work today! Take it easy!

I went back to work today and I feel pretty good still. I'm tired, but not exhausted. I'm sorry you're having such a bad day today :-( When can you have a Protein shake? I was allowed at day 3. I hope it gets better dear, hang in there.

Went back to work. Went well. Was very tired by end of the day but amazed that Friday I felt so bad and went back today .. So amazing. I did finally sleep in my bed but wasn't that comfortable .. Just have pain in stomach area ..think the gas is gone .

Weird how everyone's diets are different . I was told clear for one day.. Full liquids two weeks .. Three days puréed and then soft. On 4th day of full .. And I can't wait to eat real food. Guess that will come soon enough .

I thought about you a lot yesterday! Glad everything went well for you back at work! I am on Clear Liquids for the first week- week 2 I can move to solid liquids- Protein shakes her I come!-week 3 is soft, mushed, puréed foods, and week 4 is solid foods. My Protein Shakes were keepi g me full and right now that's what I am struggling with. Still have some gas:( I go back to the doc tomorrow afternoon and I'm hoping he will let me have a Protein Shake tomorrow night for dinner. If not I cannot wait til Thursday- that will be a week.

On a bright note- since starting my preop diet 15 days ago I have lost 16 pounds:)

Sitting at home unable to do much has my mind racing from boredom. However I just realized in 13.7 pounds I will be in Onederland!! I haven't been there in 13 years! Motivation in itself!

      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.
