I am so glad you are home and are continuing to recover. I hope the pain and nausea lessens each day and hopefully each day you will start to feel better (especially now since you are home...hospitals are NOT relaxing places to be!)

Thanks for your update, I'm glad to see you are on your way to be 100% better.

So sorry. I'm sure it is very painful and is/was very scarey for you. These complications are quite scarey and make any surgery something to ponder. But thankful you are home and prayerfully on the mend.

So many people go through this surgery with no problems that I think we all fail to remember that this is a serious surgery. Stories like this make us stop and realize the decision to have this surgery take some guts. Praying for you & your situation.

      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.
