GREAT! I feel like myself again! I'm so happy! The next 2 weeks I'm going to start walking more and hopefully start exercising :-). Thanks to all for you're encouraging words, and you were RIGHT it does get better with time:001_wub:.

So glad to hear it. It's amazing how quickly you go from "what have I done" to "ow!" to "Wow! I feel like myself again".

Looking forward to "watching" your journey.

Yes, yes, yes! I remember crying in the hospital wondering "what did I do?" LOL (it wasn't funny then), but I'm so glad for you and others who were here to support me:crying: sniff sniff thanks again Mini :-)

I just realized I didn't take my pepcid ac today (I just forgot) do you think that has anything to do with it???

Probably not ... 2 weeks out is about the time I started feeling like me again.

I am very happy for you.

I said those exact words, when they woke me after surgery, and the entire night. "what did I do", LOL (it is funny now looking back on it, but not then I really thought I was going to die), but I'm feeling better each day, and actually going back to work part time on Monday. I'm glad you are feeling better.:thumbup:

I am two days out and still at the "What have I done?" stage. Feeling very anxious.

Day 2-6 were the worst for me. It just doesn't feel right and I was scared I would never feel like me again. Somewhere around day 10 I woke up feeling like woah....this isn't so bad. Now at 29 days out. I feel just like me but a me thats lost 19 pounds and a me that can't eat a whole lot. Other then that I am feeling pretty damn good and no longer feel the buyer's remorse.

      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.
