Hello Bansters!! Here are some pictures. My surgery lasted 6 1/2 hours and I did great. I am dopey today and sore but the pain pills and the ice are helping lots. I can taking off the dressings tomorrow and show. I wear the comprssion garments 3 weeks. I have 4 drains in and if all goes good I can have them taken out on Monday. I will keep putting pictures up as things change!!

I am on day 2 post op. I think my boobs look strange - I am not used to seeing them perky, my husband says they look fine. I was also a little taken back by my arms. I know I went into this to get perky boobs and skinny arms but I was not ready to see them!! There is a ton of bruising and swelling. I will post some pictures with the compression sleeves off soon. I hope to have the drains taken out tomorrow. That will make me feel 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.
