Hi everyone! I'm new posting here. I'm 2 days post op and trying my hardest to get thru right now. I'm barely getting my Protein in or Water. Any suggestions?

You're not going to get much protein in this early, just focus on staying hydrated. Try to get in as much liquid as possible for now. With time you'll start to get more protein in. Congrats on your journey.

@@aloudwhisper, I didn't realize you are from Maryland as well. Did you have your surgery at St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore? They have a great support group on Monday and every other Monday.

I moved to Birmingham, Alabama 2 years ago. I had my band at Washington hospital, but I converted here. I am not cleared to work out yet. I have been trying to really take it easy since I went back to work 5 days out. I am on soft foods. I am trying to get use to the sleeve and not stuff my sleeve. It's so crazy, small things like eating eggs is not a struggle. 1 egg, can sometimes be a lot for my small pouch, so I am learning my tolerance. I want to begin working out. I'm going to a conference this weekend, so i will be doing a lot of walking. I am ready to take this thing to the next level.

Welcome to the other side. I am 13 days out. I was just encouraged to keep sipping. It's hard. So popsicles and Jello helps. I also enjoyed hot broth. I would drink it out of my portable coffee mug. It only allows sips at a time. That make it much easier for me. You want to find protein that really works for you also.

      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.
