Dee21, Not bad for all I had done. Banded, hiatal hernia repair and umbilical hernia repair. The incisions from the band have virtually no pain. The umbilical hernia was a different story. Really sore, getting better little by little. Today is day three, really gassy, but passing gas feels great. No offense intended, just FYI. Not hungry at all, forcing myself to drink a Protein Shake and Soup. Worn out today, but for all I had done, I suppose I'm doing well. Thanks for asking.

Nothing to worry about. Your team is showing up at work today confident that nothing is going to go wrong. If it were they would have called in sick...lbs as confident as they are. You'll do great!

      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.
