Recommended Posts

Hey there my friends!

I would use some of your help.Its 3.5 weeks since my operation and 3th day since I experience a strange stomach and abdomen pain everytime i eat or drink something.Its not a terrible pain but not pleasant and constant.

I got scared and called my surgeon and he said everything was ok and I only have to eat slower.Is strange couse I didnt have this pain before and now when Im supposed to feel better it came up.

Could you tell me if some of you had this too and if its not a reason to be worried.

Thank u very much!

I had discomfort when I first started moving from liquids. I think part of it was having to learn to eat slower and to chew my food better before swallowing.

I too had this pain. It is just part of the healing process. If you progress to another level of post op eating and have any problems, just go back to the stage you are trying to progress out of for a few more days. We all heal at different rates and this pain is just your body's way of letting you know it isn't ready to "progress" on to the next level.

Take care, relax, and enjoy the ride!!! You will do great.

BTW, welcome to the loosers bench!!! Best wishes to you:thumbup1:.

      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.
