Well, I'm back home from having the plication yesterday. Today I'm feeling much better, although still crummy. Yesterday was uncomfortable with dry, pasty mouth, very sore throat, tender tummy, and pain in my stomach with even the smallest ice chip. Today I'm up and around a lot more, still tender and having to take it easy with just sips...no gulps! I had strained cream of chicken Soup for dinner tonight and it was delicious! Trying to make sure I'm doing the walking and the incentive spirometer like I'm supposed to! I'm concerned I might have some phebitis at my IV site, but I'm watching it. Took a shower, now headed to bed. Hopefully tomorrow I will feel even better!

      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.
