I am glad to hear you are doing well. I left the hospital on Saturday. I woke up from surgery with a pain level of 2. I was extremely blessed.

Hey, how are you feeling? I was out of it the day that I responded to this post. Lol

Songbird, it wasn't bad. My doctor keeps you in the hospital for two nights. I went in on a Tuesday & came home on a Thursday. I was able to walk up & down the steps as soon as I got home. I had one really bad day, that Friday. I figure one bad day is nothing & the rest has just been an adjustment. You will do fine & you will love it!!! I'm down to 187. I'll weigh again tomorrow...

I'm taking a Biotin supplement. I've read that it helps.

      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.
